Enid Blyton's Personality

Post by honesty »

Always wondered what Enid Blyton was like? Correct me if I'm wrong but Enid loved her fans(she liked to call them 'her friends'?)/ children who read her books and they often had tea-parties with her?? :?:

Unfortunately I never met Enid (to my great regret) but she must have been a special person to read
to so many children from a very early age. She understood children which is something that very few adults
do.

You should have a look in the 'Author of Adventure' on the Society page. I'm sure there will be a bit about Enid's personality if you look there. Here's the link: http://www.enidblytonsociety.co.uk/auth ... enture.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
