180 BEAUTIFUL Dorothy Wheeler Pictures Make Enid's Last Faraway Tree Book Special!
In her last Faraway Tree book, Enid Blyton's soaring imagination combines to incredible effect with Dorothy Wheeler's beautiful illustrations. Children will be pleased to know that all the characters from the earlier books are still here; Silky, the Angry Pixie, Moonface, and Mr Watzisname, etc. At the start of the book we meet 2 new characters, the children Robin and Joy. They are reading about Jo, Bessie and Fanny in their Faraway Tree book, and so they decide to go off and find them - surely something that all Faraway Tree fans would love to do! Most readers will know that Enid's first 3 Faraway Tree books are novels with some pictures, but Up The Faraway Tree is different. Similar to (but better than) a comic-book, with 2 landscape picture boxes occupying each page. 4 pictures on view if the book is laid open flat, with a small amount of Enid Blyton text beneath each picture. Yes, Enid has to be more concise, having only 2 or 3 lines beneath each picture, but being concise is something she is very good at, and the pictures and text are an inseparable joy after a couple of reads. Although some are less enthusiastic that the last Faraway Tree book is picture-based, many have loved this just as it is, and most children will love it too. Since childhood I have always believed this book's combination of text and pictures is magical. Some criticise it for being picture-based, but prior to this reissue, identical copies of this book were selling for hundreds of pounds! Dorothy Wheeler's original illustrations could never be improved upon, even though some children will think the illustrations don't match the poorer ones in current Faraway Tree editions. Although this book is shorter than the first 3 Faraway Tree books, it's a nice length read to your children at bedtime. If you can get two copies, young children will love to colour in the black and white pictures! So now visit some more amazing lands, such as say, the Land of Castles, or the Land of Wishes!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Rubbish short cartoon book.
Thought this was a follow on from the folk of the faraway tree but it's a short cartoon type book with not particularly well recycled stories, also quite a short book. Overall, shouldn't have bothered!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Woke-free
Modern childrens books seem to be designed to twist young minds but this book along with other Blyton books is entertaining and will impart a good vocabulary. Buy it, it will teach your kids some actual English.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
