Advantages: good clean fun
Disadvantages: none

...There are 63 Chalet School books in all and this is number nine in the series. All the books are based about a school started by Madge Bettany the series starts before the second world war and as we go on with the books you move on with the times right up into the sixties. This chalet school book is based around the time a rival school started in the same place as the chalet school and how at first the 2 schools were sworn enemies. A personal favourite of mine when growing up which I have read again and again and still enjoy reading now and my own children are reading them and understanding what it was like to be at school before the war. My eldest daughter is always on about why cant it be like this now. All my girls enjoy these book and enjoy reading about all the fun of life in a Boarding School. .Recommended to all ages. All...
