Boy/Going Solo. Read and re-read it about 10 times over the course of my youth, the bit about having his tonsils out still makes me squirm today.

Yes, in the late 1950's and I read a lot of Enid Blyton, BB, Wind in the Willows, Comics - not sure Dahl was available then? Not in the Mobile Library that I used.
