Re: Enid Blyton Day 2011
Hi Members,
Does anyone know for sure if there is going to be an Enid Blyton Day for 2011? I hope so as I will be in England in May 2011 and I was hoping to attend my very first Enid Blyton Day.

Re: Enid Blyton Day 2011
I'm afraid there are currently no plans for an Enid Blyton Day in 2011, Jennifer. This year's Day was well attended but booksellers reported poor sales, and it gets more and more difficult to find speakers.

That's sad. Let's hope something crops up. Keeping fingers and toes crossed.

That would be telling, Katherine.
But it's going to be a great day.
