For many people, it would be impossible to separate Mary Gernat's distinctive sketchy illustrations from Sheila McCullagh's engaging stories. I learned to read with these books and they will always have a place in my deepest memories.

On the Island is the eighth book in the Griffin Pirate Stories series and brings together Ben the Blue pirate, Roderick the Red, Greg the Green and the Griffin-of-the-Rock in an adventure where they have to work together to get off the island.

This review is for the Thomas Nelson (1993) re-issue of this book.

I recently happened across a copy of, what (on the surface) appeared to be a vintage issue of this book. Near identical to the original published some thirty five years previously - now more than fifty years ago!

What this is, in actual fact, is a Chinese copy; but, done so well that I would be more than happy to own a complete set of these fine reproductions myself.
It's like owning a mint condition copy of a book from the 1960's - something quite rare to find; even down to the canvas textured cover.
It is clearly a re-issue rather than a pirate copy as evident from the publishing data on the inside cover and the addition of a printed barcode on the back (which would not have existed on the original); but, I have to say 'what a lovely product'.

The story:

After sailing away from the island of the Mer-people, Benjamin encounters a fierce storm during the night, and in the midst of all the turmoil looses his bag containing the candle, the mirror and the flute. Without them he can not see in the dark, know the way; nor, worst of all, ever call the Griffin again!

This is a story I vividly recall reading as a child at junior school. I had trouble reading, and these books helped me gain a lot of confidence. I therefore have fond memories of the whole series.
