Classic adventure stories with very innocent themes. The stories are a little bit dated and the language takes a little getting used to but my 10 year-old daughter really enjoys them and it has been a great way of getting her to engage with books. We read them together at night and she can't wait to hear the next part. I like the fact that is a group of boys and girls so boys and girls both relate to the characters. One of the boys has a pet bird who talks and that provides some light relief and a few gags. Nice innocent fun and adventure.

A fabulous run of books for children. Wonderful stories and escapism for children elevate these above the Secret Seven and Famous Five although will feel incredibly familiar to anyone who has read those. They run true to Blyton’s well trodden formula of a children and animals embarking on unexpected adventures. Add in the mix of a wonderful sense of growing up in the 1950s and 60s (I’m at 70s/80s child) and they’re superb bedtime stories with chapters of just the right 10 minute or so lengths.
