I am not buttering you up Barney. I have read all your books.

Barney says: I have only written one book, 'It's a Dog's Life', my autobidography, but I don't think that anyone has read it.

Hi, I am Shazia. I love all the books of Enid Blyton. I like you, Barney. You are so cute. I wish I had a dog like you. I want to know who married Bets in the Five Find-Outers and Dog series. Also, whom did Fatty marry and how many children did he have?

Barney says: Buttering me up won't get you the answers to your questions I'm afraid, Shazia! Enid Blyton didn't write about the Find-Outers as adults so we don't know whether they would have got married and had children. However, you may enjoy reading the fan fiction about the Find-Outers as grown-ups, written by Julie Heginbotham and Nonnimus. It can be found at EnidBlyton.net.

I have used Sunny Stories in my classroom especially ones that had a moral pertaining to events in the classroom!

Barney says: A good idea, Rose. It's great to hear that Enid Blyton's short stories are used in schools. I can imagine that stories like 'Peter's Pencil Box,' 'The Great Big Story,' 'The Packet of Sweets' and others would provoke some lively and thoughtful discussion.

I have two Mary Mouse strip books of the same story i.e. "Hurrah for Mary Mouse," but they have two different covers. Why is this? Heather.

Barney says: It looks as if you might have the first edition and an early reprint, Heather, which can both be seen in the Cave of Books.
