Royal seal of approval?

Post by Ice_Gemz »

I have stumbled across an article which has been copied across various publications, which mentions Enid is a positive light (hooray!)

It seems the Duchess of Cambridge is keen for her children to enjoy the outdoors and an 'Enid Blyton upbringing':
https://www.express.co.uk/news/royal/12 ... -education" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

A small step but could this be royal approval of Enid and her work?

I don't know of any other mentions of Enid by other members of the Royal family - does anyone else?

Perhaps Tony should write to them and invite them to join the Society. :D
