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 teaches us honesty and good principles and values one should uphold in life. Always split up to help each other incidentally. And rejoined. Presented With a scary personality in the book too. Two or three will be in trouble and the others go to get help. The usual of most famous fives. But I like the unique idea each book presents. Dungeons and gold, dollar notes, island, typically British- clean, calm and well organized. This book really cultivates love for all living things, through Timmy’s character, in readers mind. And the fun of good friendship too. I really savored the last part. It was really adventurous to read this book!!They’d make fine men and women when they’ll be adults. The writing style is so energetic! I really enjoyed the book with its unique writing style. The dialogues are too old. The happenings are so dramatic. Perfect book for children!! They’ll adore it!!
Mystery Moor is near where Anne and george are at the riding school. It is kind of like a desert. Travellers always go and camp there, why no one knows. When Julian And Dick comes to the scenes, an adventure begins at their camping place which is a quarry in the moor. Things get out of hands as Aeroplanes drop things at night . The children finds out that the parcels have 100 dollar american notes in them. They find out that the travellers take these parcels to their boss. The most exciting part is when a mist so thick hungs on the very night the children finds the parcels and decides to hide them and go home. Travellers capture Anne, George and Timmy in the quarry, when they don't find Julian And Dick coming back who went to hide the parcels. George .Anne and Timmy escape with the help of a girl at the Riding school, Henrietta, who would only answer if called Henry and a boy at the stables; William, who is very sensible. Julian and Dick who were lost in the mist, at last find the way and come back. Things then get more settledwhen Mrs. Johnson, the captain's wife, calls the police and arrest the travellers except sniffer, a poor boy, who had helped Anne and George to get out.

Things I remember I wanted as little child reading this book:1. Learning how to ride a horse2. following gypsies to a mysterious moor3. always being able to find a way home4. older brothers like Julian and Dick, but especially JulianThings I remember I DIDN'T want as little child reading this book:1. being called with boys name.Reading this at my age, this doesn't feel as thrilling as when I read it ten to twelve years ago. My focus shifted a lot from the adventure to how silly George and Henry wanted to be thought of as boys. As if being boys are the best honor that could be bestowed upon a human being! But it's nice to read that George happily admit that her name is Georgina for once, and Henry shows her true color (although only Timmy witnessed it). As of the story, it is formulaic, but it is a formula that works. A bit fidgeting how many stars should I give this particular book, but I will settle with 3.

The most interesting part of this story was Henry the George look alike. That generated some conflict and some laughable moments. The gypsies and their patrins was the intriguing part. The legend of the mystery moor was another exciting aspect but then Enid Byton is no Arthur Conan Doyle. Nor is Five go to Mystery Moor Hound of Baskervilles. So it does not send a deep chill down the reader's spine, at least not for the adult reader. The novelty in the setting are the mist and the abandoned railway track. The main mystery as such is just going through the motions - finding something mysteries, being captives, escaping, getting police and solving mystery.

As with all Famous Five books, this is of the same trusted and successful formula. I loved these books as a child and I am delighted that my girls loved them as children too.The stories are adventures of a byegone age, yet still hold the attention of children, around the world...... they have stood the test of time well - and for a great reason.The stories are plausible, fun, adventurous and contain an excellent mix of young characters... with a little bit of everyone in each of them - something that children have obviously known for decades.
