As the first set of 'grown-up' books I ever discovered I could read on my own, the Famous Five have a very special place in my heart. I still remember running through to my parents' room to tell them I could read well enough to go adventuring with the Five without their help. And with 21 books in the series, I had plenty of escapades to look forward to!
Dangerous criminals are no match for children and a dog. Adults are useless
Famous Five books are essential for all children's bookshelves
I loved so much of Enid Blyton ... the Famous Five were my favourites of all, so much so that I demanded to be called George for most of my early childhood
This book is so exciting you'll want to play detective yourself
I thought this series was wonderful. It struck me as a great injustice that they were having adventures and I wasn't
Always popular, always a favourite. And ALWAYS full of adventure
One of the 50 books every child should read by Age 16
The prize must go to the adventures of George and co. Listed as one of the 100 Best Children's Books Ever (Novels)
Pacey and passionate, this truly exceptional book tells a tale that truly needs to be heard
