Enid Blyton defined my childhood :) - Page 2

Even our childhood was full of her books.. and its hard to say which was was our fav!..
Malory tower,famous five ,secret seven. Damn we were so crazy about secret seven!. the adventurous were so well described that most of time we could imagine ourselves there.😆

Sure there are many new writers and our taste might have changed but there was none like Enid Bylton and we seriously doubt there ever will be.

we still sometimes catch up with Enid Blyton books when free or totally in a readers block or if we simply wish to, we are still in high school so don't worry we aren't crazy 😆

P.S: we also used to think that the writer was a man  🤣

Oh God indeed...Ive read almost all the books from famous five series...Ive read so many books after that..I hardly remember them..but they were my ultimate fav...I just remember reading Famous five and the wishing chair !!
God how I miss them !!

Lol well said yup i guess we all book lovers do hav our start up from enid blyton stories The secret seven fomous five malory tpwers mystery series lol they are just way too perfect for young readers

Well said!
I belive every bookworm has started his/her readin journey with Enid Blyton, followed by JK Rowling, followed by Stephanie Meyers, and then Sydney Sheldon and then diverted into their favorite genres!

I agree wholeheartedly. One of the first novels for kids MUST be Enid Blyton. She was God's gift to children's books. Famous Five, Secret Seven, Galliano's Circus, St. Clare, Malory Towers - wow!! they were real good reads!!

I used to be a great fan of her books. Great post, really nostalgic 😊

Rish, great to see you here 😃

Enid Blyton colored my childhood I remember winning a story-telling contest back in grade-2 when I narrated a story written by her. And know what? I even got an Enid Blyton book as a first prize for that contest 🤣

^Aah good ol memories =)
My faves were The Faraway Tree, Malory Towers, The Famous Five and ofcourse, who can forget The Noddy Books? 🤣 Weird, how I used to think Noddy was a girl =/
Well anyway, have a great day Rishu ❤️ 😃

Definitely! Mine too! 😃 I loved the secret seven series so much that I even convinced all my chaddi-buddies to form a secret society with me as well 😆 and we'd have our secret meetings under bushes (that was our "shed"). Ahh the good ol days 😊

Famous Five, The Five Find-Outers, St. Claire's series, Malory Towers and of course the Noddy Books! 😃 Awww shucks, you just brought back so many good memories. I'm 22 now and I still want to pick up an Enid Blyton book and start reading, just to go back to my childhood 😃

She was indeed a great writer. Her books were so engrossing that my mother used to hide my story books coz you know I wont study just read her books. My fav were the naughtiest girl books. Loved them.
