Looking for a ski-in/out chalet or Mont Tremblant Condo with Hot tubs and Pools? Try the the luxury Panache Mont Tremblant or Tremblant resort condos like the convenient Equinox Mont Tremblant or featuring the Bondurant Mont Tremblant or ski-in/out at the Altitude Mont Tremblant

i have a few of the chalet School books that I’ve picked up at book sales and thrift shops over the years, they’re quite charming.
Wikipedia has an entry that lists all of the titles in the series as well as more recent books that have been written to fill in the gaps in the original series.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chalet_Scho…
There are some of the books available on Amazonhttp://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_ss_w_h_…
Some of the books are also available at ABE.http://www.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchRe…
*Edit: Another answerer attributed the books to Enid Blyton but the books were actually written by Elinor Brent-Dyer.
Hope that helps. Cheers.

They are currently being reprinted by Girls gone By, an independent small press publisher. They are also widely available on ebay and in second hand bookshops sometimes though prices can be unrealistically high. I have a collection, am not ashamed to say I am over 60 years old. I should have added they were not written by Enid Blyton but by Elinor M Brent Dyer

Yes, they were written by Enid Blyton. I’m sure that if you go to any decent bookstore, they should have a selection of her novels. I personally was a huge “Famous Five” buff…and if I’m being honest, I still like to read them from time to time!!!!

I own a fair few. Doesn’t Amazon have them?
