About the Author
Enid Blyton, 1897 - November 28, 1968 Enid Blyton was born in London in 1897. She was educated in a private school and thought that she would become a musician until she realized that writing was her passion. She attended Ipswich High School where she trained to become a kindergarten teacher and show more eventually opened her own school for infants. Blyton's first poem was published in 1917, entitled "Have You-" which appeared in Nash's Magazine. In 1922, her first book of verses was published, entitled "Child Whispers." In 1926 she accepted a position editing the children's magazine "Sunny Stories" as well as writing the column "Teachers World." Blyton's first full length children's book was published din 1938 and was titled "The Secret Island." After working on the column for years, Blyton quit "Teachers World" in 1945 and also ended her stint as editor of "Sunny Stories" seven years later. In 1953 she started her own children's magazine called "The Edith Blyton Magazine" which featured stories about her characters and news on the clubs formed around them. Her most famous stories were those of the "Famous Five" The Magazine closed in 1959. In the 50's and 60's Blyton was criticized for the language in her book, for being to simple, but some 300 are still in print today. Blyton has published over 600 books in the course of her career. Enid Blyton died in her sleep on November 28, 1968. She was 71 years old. show less

Reviews
The Secret Seven collection by Enid Blyton
some language consistent with the times. Some squabbling. This series is under review.
I started reading this aloud to my seven-year-old granddaughter who liked it very much. It's probably thirty years since I read the 'Naughtiest Girl' series, but it was one of my favourites as a child. I can see flaws in the writing now, of course, but still thought it a good story, with some amusing scenes, and some quite poignant ones.
The book is naturally dated (it was written around 1940) but Whyteleafe School, which the 'naughty' Elizabeth Allen attends, is an unusual school even by today's standards. Elizabeth learns a lot about herself - and while the eventual outcome is predictable, it's not obvious how it's going to come about.
Definitely recommended to children of about seven and upwards, either to read themselves or as a read-aloud to introduce them to this genre of school stories.
