For some reason this reminds me of a comment made by my good friend today.
"Noddy is amazing! Secret Seven was good fun too. I never really got into the Famous Five and found them annoying and dull, and incredibly random, and thus I didn't continue my Blyton quest any further."
A lot of people find The Famous Five before everything else, and seem set on it, and not wanting to explore! (Except the people here, of course) I was rather surprised at that bit about the Secret Seven though. Clearly he has funny reading habits, I thought.

I had to read
Here Comes Noddy Again! to Aarham, half an hour ago, hoping he'd fall asleep - he did not. He listened to the whole thing (and I don't know how much he understood) and begged for more. I was too tired to continue with another book so now he's watching airplane videos instead of dreaming!!
