About the Author
Enid Blyton (1897–1968) is one of the most popular children’s writers of all time: her books have sold hundreds of millions of copies in dozens of languages, and continue to inspire new generations with a love of reading. Famously prolific, she sometimes published more than 50 books a year, with more than 750 appearing in total across a 40-year career. Blyton’s best-loved fiction is from long-running series – including The Famous Five, The Secret Seven and Malory Towers – and she also created enduring characters such as Noddy. Her creativity was coupled with a pioneering instinct for marketing and publicity, including the licensing of characters for board games, jigsaw puzzles and adaptations in other media. Blyton was born in South London and spent much of her adult life living in Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire.
