Thrilling

Five Go Adventuring Again by Enid Blyton is another thrilling children’s book that is just perfect for the over tens. It is the second book in the Famous Five series but can be read as a stand-alone.

Generations of children have grown up with the Famous Five books – and I am thoroughly enjoying re-visiting my childhood by getting lost within the pages of a book.

The Famous Five does not disappoint and is as entertaining now as it was when I first read the books in the early 1970’s.

This book was written in 1943 but is still entertaining audiences today. It is a good old-fashioned tale where the children, and Timothy the dog are the heroes of the story.

Although this is a children’s book, I still found myself engrossed in the action, reading with heart racing as I sped towards the conclusion.

The Famous Five can now be enjoyed by a new generation, as well as those who have gone before.
