Re: Enid Blyton on Wikipedia
I liked this quote from Enid which gives a great insight into her character:
Blyton's manuscripts had been rejected by publishers on many occasions, which only made her more determined to succeed: "it is partly the struggle that helps you so much, that gives you determination, character, self-reliance – all things that help in any profession or trade, and most certainly in writing".
" A kind heart always brings its own reward," said Mrs. Lee.

Re: Enid Blyton on Wikipedia
Looks like a quote from Enid's 'The Story of My Life'
'Oh voice of Spring of Youth
hearts mad delight,
Sing on, sing on, and when the sun is gone
I'll warm me with your echoes
through the night.'
(E. Blyton, Sunday Times, 1951)
