Re: 40 Books to Last a Lifetime

Not sure how to cull 40 favorites books from my 600-odd book collection, but here goes: :) (I am Australian, so many would be Aussie books that are probably not internationally published). 1- The Magic Faraway Tree by Enid Blyton 2- Mr Galliano's Circus by Enid B...

Re: Autographed Blyton book

Whoops! I did have the wrong title put up, nothing to do with goblins! I think I had a 'brain malfunction' and put the wrong title on wrong post! :) Hadn't even noticed! Just checked it again (my Grandma is staying a few days with my family up in Queensland) and was an Enid Blyton book that I actual...

Autographed Blyton book

My Grandmother, who is 71 this year, was a huge fan of Enid Blyton books in her childhood, and still is as a matter of fact. The other day we were talking when I pulled out a copy of one of Enid's books called "The Goblin Hat and Other Stories" and it was actually signed by Enid Blyton!!! ...

Aargh! I am in Australia, and so wish a 'Enid Blyton Day' was here!! Someone should organise one here, hopefully in near future, for all of Enid's Aussie fans!

The Story of My Life

I am on the hunt for Enid's autobiography "The Story of My Life", I think it's called. If anyone has a copy for me, can trade with them for it by giving them an Enid Blyton book I have.

Re: Enid Blyton Biopic on BBC4

I'm not sure what you mean by "sleeve sheets", Petermax, and I have looked on the film's Amazon.co.uk page and couldn't find anything, but I found a review of "ENID" by a fellow Australian, so I suppose the DVD must work here in Oz!!!

Thanks again, and big regards,
