Secret Doors and Smuggler's Holes11 May 2012tThis is the first of the Famous Five (Freunde Funf in German) books that takes place away from Kirrin Cottage and the surrounding area. Once again it is holidays (and it is Easter, which sort of throws the books out of order since book two was during t...

Five Go to Mystery Moor (2015)

Honesty, Bravery, Good wits, and intelligence-to be favorable for an adventure. I got that. The book awakens all the senses, for me. The author really knows how to express his fantasy. I’ve just noticed that it’s always about money! Very unique thought for the author. The famous five always teac...

Five Go Adventuring Again (2015)

This is the second in the Famous Five series. The book gripped me from the very beginning and I loved the concept of it and it was different from the first book! I still say that Enid is still one of my all time favourite authors to this day! What I love about her novels is that she makes the mys...

Five on a Treasure Island (2001)

Enid Blyton’s fiction remains extraordinarily popular. Despite the disdain of literary critics much of her vast output remains in print because, as publishers know, her work sells. I was brought up on the Noddy books, migrated to the Famous Five and then on to the Secret Seven. I never got onto M...

The Island of Adventure (2000)

Philip and Dinah Mannering and Lucy-Ann and Jack Trent have had the best of luck in being allowed to spend summer break together at the Mannering’s home – a castle, actually – Craggy Tops. They spend most of their time crawling along the beaches and hills and cliffs near Craggy Tops looking at bi...

Five Get into a Fix (2015)

I'm going to tear this book a new orifice. My tongue will be in my cheek - this book just seems to be a particularly fine example of Blyton's worst habits. Bear with me. Apologies to Enid Blyton but I've read 30+ of her books and she's been dead 47 years, so I doubt it will worry her.I've read a ...

Another of Blyton's many mystery stories17 June 2012tAfter having read the first five of the Famous Five books I decided to try a different one of Blyton's mystery stories, and thus I picked up this one where the group is known as the Five Finder-outers and Dog.

The Circus of Adventure (2000)

This is one of my favorite Enid Blyton books. One of the reasons I like this book a lot is becausewe finally have a story that moves out of Britain, Scotland and Wales. For a person who has read a lot of Enid Blyton, the typical English country side setting was getting quite monotonous for me. Va...

The Mystery of the Disappearing Cat (2015)

This was the first proper book that I read all by myself when I was a child. Though my copy was passed on to younger siblings (not before being re-read several times) and has probably long since disintegrated, I still have a great affection for this story.This is the second of the stories featuri...

Misterio del gato desaparecido (1986)

The Mystery of the Hidden House (2015)

The Naughtiest Girl Again (1997)

After I have read the beginning of "The Naughtiest Girl Again" I liked three things about it. One of the reasons that I liked this book is because the main character, Elizabeth, tries to change during this term. One example she gives during this story is that she tries to be friends with everyb...

The Ship of Adventure (2000)

This book would have been a good, fitting ending to the series (as everyone knows, it was originally written as the final book) as the treasure hunting adventure and the Mediterranean locations manage to live up to the high standards of the premises and settings of the previous two books, if not ...

The Enchanted Wood. Enid Blyton (2007)

Five Fall Into Adventure (2015)

A somewhat dark and scary adventure26 August 2012tI found this one to be a much darker Famous Five adventure than the ones that I have so far read. It seemed that the Five were in a lot more trouble, and facing a lot more danger, than they have had previously. Also, it is the first book that I ac...

The Folk of the Faraway Tree (1997)

Having this year read the first two in the series and dishing out five stars, I have to admit to myself that despite everything – the imagination, the perfect pacing, the innate sense of what will appeal to children – this series has not dated well, and that this book, the third in the series, ha...

The Naughtiest Girl in the School (1999)

Apa yang kamu rasakan jika kamu anak satu-satunya yang biasanya dimanja oleh mama dan papa, bebas melakukan apa saja dirumah, tiba-tiba harus bersekolah dan tinggal di asrama bersama-sama dengan banyak orang dalam satu gedung dan jauh dari keluarga? Pastilah sangat menyebalkan rasanya.Demikian pe...

Last Term at Malory Towers (2006)

I've spent the last few days rereading my copies of Enid Blyton's Malory Towers series. Unfortunately I only have the third, fifth and sixth, but I am now determined to get my hands on the other three and read them obsessively. I love them for a few of reasons, which I shall enumerate here:1. The...

Five Go Off to Camp (2015)

An adventure involving trains6 August 2012tWell I have just finished the seventh Famous Five book but that means that there is another fourteen to go.

Five Go to Billycock Hill (2015)

Five Have Plenty of Fun (2001)

This was one of the first famous Five books I read as a girl, and I've always loved it. I loved particularly how upset George was that Berta made a better boy than she did! For some reason, even though I never dressed or tried to act like a boy, I've always sympathized with George. I was a little...

Five on Finniston Farm (2015)

Five go after some profiteers9 June 2014tWell, this one was a little better than the previous Famous Five adventure that I read, however once again there is a little shift in the nature of the story, which is always a good thing because, since this is book number 18, Blyton no doubt has settled d...

Five Run Away Together (2015)

- FAMOUS FIVE 2012: CHILDHOOD REVISITED -Book three: Five Run Away TogetherAnd then it got serious.If memory serves, "Five Run Away Together" is the second book I got in the collection, and probably the second most read. A correlation isn't obvious; it isn't because I had it before most others th...

The Magic Faraway Tree (2002)

Enid Blyton’s ‘The Magic Faraway Tree’ is an imaginative and enchanting book that would be great to introduce into a Key Stage 2 classroom.The book follows on from Blyton’s first book in the series ‘The Enchanted Wood.’ The story follows three siblings - Joe, Beth and Frannie - who have discovere...

The Secret Island (2002)

My mother was a great reader, who used to receive books for birthday and Christmas presents. One of her favourites was her copy of "The Secret Island", which she looked after well and let me have when I was little. This started my Enid Blyton phase and I treasured the book so much. One of the r...

Adventures of the Wishing Chair (2015)

My kids (4 & 5) just couldn't get enough of this book. I rationed it at a chapter a night, and they lost all interest in movies or cartoons if it meant no wishing chair - which was my plan all along! (Mwa-ha-ha-ha). My 5yo girl sobbed during one story, she was so involved, and sometimes my 4yo bo...

The Wishing-Chair Again (2015)

The Sea of Adventure (2007)

The Mountain of Adventure (2015)

This one is totally weird, seriously. It was ok but I'm not so into this set of Enid Blyton kids. Like usual, the girls are totally non-descript and that whole no personality thing is kinda boring. Anyway, two sets of brother and sisters go on holiday in the middle of nowhere in Wales with their ...

The Adventurous Four (1989)

"Shipwrecked! (The Adventurous Four, #1) by Enid Blyton has sequels Stranded! and Trapped!, but suffers from re-titling over the century. 8+ age conversations have realistic long run-on sentences with clever words: astonishment, fuel, crocodiles, piers, jetties. Black and white brisk-lined quick-...

Five on a Hike Together (2001)

If it wasn't for those meddlesome kids3 September 2012tAfter a really intense and dark adventure, the Five return for an adventure that seems to be a little less dangerous, though of course we still have the rather nasty and vicious bad guys.

The Mystery of Holly Lane (1988)

The Mystery of the Invisible Thief (1991)

I discovered Enid Blyton's books in a used bookstore in Katmandu when I was twelve years old. They were the only English-language kids' books in the place and they opened 1950s English village life to me as if I'd stepped directly into a painting of it.I kept the battered paperbacks as a reminder...

The Mystery of the Strange Messages (2003)

this is my first time tho. sebelumnya belum pernah baca buku enid blyton. dan..... ternyata seru!! ngak se bagus as i thought it was... tp gak jelek juga. pokoknya bagus. walaupun kayaknya kalau dipikir2 tokoh Fatty kayak bukan manusia gitu lho. terlalu bagus untuk jadi nyata. however, he's a fic...

The Mystery of the Pantomime Cat (2003)

The River of Adventure (2000)

For me, this is definitely the weakest book in the 'Adventure' series. There is nothing wrong with it as such, but there is also nothing original or unique to this adventure. The setting of the middle-eastern river is not as vividly or as excitingly realised as most of the others, and nothing hap...

Los Cinco En El Cerro Del Contrabandista (1985)

The Mystery of Banshee Towers (1996)

"What's happening now? How is it something always happens when that fat boy is about?", he grunts. "Pooh, what a smell of mint. One of these days, Master Frederick Trotteville, I'll get the better of you! You see if I don't!" I always get nostalgic when I read Ms. Blyton's books. Her books mak...

The Valley of Adventure (2000)

You can say what you like about Enid Blyton. You can say that she is horrifically sexist. You can say that all her villains are fundamentally the same: 'tough men', foreign, with 'thick necks' and 'piggy eyes' and with 'a brooding look'. You can say that all her characters are stereotypical and s...

Mr Pink-Whistle's Party (1998)

The Ring-O-bells Mystery (1997)

The Mystery of the Vanished Prince (1996)

I only found the last part of the book anywhere near interesting although i cant complain since the book was intended to be a children's book and it would be unjust to judge it as a bad work.But even then nothin really interested me to keep reading the book except the desire to finish it and be d...
