The Twins at St. Clare's is the first book in Enid Blyton's classic St. Clare's school series. Twins Patricia and Isabel O'Sullivan arrive at boarding school determined not to fit in, but lessons, friendships, rivalries and a series of lively mishaps gradually change their minds.
This is a 1954 Methuen hardcover reprint of the original 1941 title, printed in Great Britain. The book is bound in orange cloth with black lettering to the front board and spine.
