  • Title Reference: The Lake at the End of the World
  • Notes:
    • No printed price.
    • Second printing, as per numberline, of the 1988 edition.
    • Cover artist not credited, but the painting is the same as the 1989 Viking Kestrel TP which has the artist's name.
    • The cover is based on that on the NZ Storylines website (October 2008). The second printing cover also has a printed circular silver Children's Book Council of Australia Short Listed Book device, on the right, under the author's name.
    • Publication in 1989 is inferred because it has the "short listed" CBCA device, so is no earlier than 1989. The 1989 TP has "Honour Book" (i.e. after the final judging); thus, this copy is unlikely to be later than 1989.
