Customer Reviews

My daughter loves this book

Enid Blyton has a way of telling stories to children which compels them to want more. I am reading this book with my 7 year old daughter. One chapter is never enough!

Good to read again!

I got to read this book again after a long, long time (after a generation). I am trying to get my daughter interested in reading, and this series seems great to get her started on the reading habit. It's half a century since Enid Blyton first wrote this book, and it is still captivating enough. I'm surprised that these books are not as popular any more. When I used to read these books, we were sharing them with friends and making sure we read all the books in the series. Nowadays, television and game consoles seem more interesting to children. Maybe, the publishers are aware of this -- and they made the covers look more interesting! One of the rewards of reading Enid Blyton titles like this Secret Seven book is that it improves your language skills. And yes, this is the first book in the Secret Seven series.

If you have children, share Enid Blyton with them!

I recently shared my old collection of Enid Blyton books with my son, who is 7 years old. They were an instant hit! The stories are full of imagination and humor and it is a shame that finding new copies is so difficult. I would advise anyone looking for childrens books to start with this author.

Pity Americans do not read Enid Blyton

Enid Blyton is one of the best children's authors I know. As an eight-year old, I personally bought and collected Blyton's books. There are different series for different age levels, so you can actually grow through the books. Unfortunately, few of Blyton's books are available in the U.S., and if available, are usually quite high priced. I miss those books.

Two days went by, and the secret seven were very busy with all kinds of things. Peter and Janet lime-washed the hen-houses for their father, with Scamper watching in great intrest. 'You look a bit peculiar, Scamper-splashed with white from the lime-wash drips,' sais Janet.'Why must you sit exactly under where we're working you get all the splashes!' George was busy too, with Colin, rigging a fine ship they had made together.
