Whilst I was checking it out to see if it would ring any bells, I discovered that there were in fact three books in the series, so there are still two more adventures featuring the Ruggles family, for you to discover.<br /><br />Oh how times have changed! Life was so simple when the man was a dustman and the woman a washerwoman ... can you imagine calling someone either of those things to their face now? ... You would probably end up in court!<br /><br />I got rid of almost all of my childhoos books, although there may still be one or two stored up in the loft. Enid Blyton seems to still be very much in vogue these days and I have often been tempted to buy a few of them, just to rekindle the memories ... I'm not really so sure that is such a good idea though ... You can't go back!<br /><br />Nice post and I am pleased that this book ticked all the boxes for you.<br /><br />Yvonne.Yvonne @ Fiction Books Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14821114534056290177noreply@blogger.com
