Five Have Plenty of Character: A Personality Guide to Enid Blyton's 'Famous Five'
Adventure, mystery and excitement are what attract readers to Enid Blyton's 'Famous Five'. But what attracted me was their character. Blyton strives to show that good character wins the day and trials can be overcome by loyalty, friendship and courage. Blyton has been criticised for portraying two dimensional characters but this book seeks to show that the Famous Five are as deep, interesting and exciting as characters from the best children's books. The Famous Five have influenced generations of children in making moral decisions and valuing good character. This book will, I hope, show why.
Looks very interesting Pete. Let us know how it is.
"What a lot of trouble one avoids if one refuses to have anything to do with the common herd. To have no job, to devote ones life to literature, is the most wonderful thing in the world. - Cicero
