MISCHIEF AGAINby

Enid Blyton and Paul KayeHere is the second book about theirresistible Laughing Kitten so en-chanting that all animal-lovers, youngor old, will love it.

Tinker romps through the pagesonce more, trying to teach the puppyhow to play the gramophone, howto use the camera (in the wrong way !),what a typewriter is or isn't for, andwhat happens when you try to answerthe telephone! Floppy the puppyis only too willing to learn, and toshare in all Tinker's mischief.

Again the photographs are superbalmost incredibly good in the way

they portray these ingenuous youngcreatures. They are by Paul Kaye,and the story is by that well-lovedwriter, Enid Blyton.

This unusual book will pleaseeveryone, and its pages will be turnedmany times, with delighted chuckles.Once more Paul Kaye, Enid Blyton,and the Kitten have presented uswith a truly enchanting book.
