"A land at the top of a tree!" said Connie. "I don't believe a word of it." Jo, Bessie and Fanny are fed up when Connie comes to stay - she's so stuck-up and bossy.

The final Faraway Tree book18 March 2012 It seems that some of Blyton's books caused a lot of controversy, to the point that some libraries were inclined not to have them on the shelves. One of the issues was her use of vocabulary, or lack of, but these are children's books so I do not understand why people would be so critical of a restricted vocab. In a way children are not expected to understand words like eclectic and in a way having a limited vocabulary, I believe, can be a useful tool inRereading a childhood favourite can sometimes prove hazardous. Often, what so appealed to our younger selves we later find riddled with plot holes, become distanced from the young protagonists, or find them just generally unsuited for an adult readership. For this reason I had stayed away from my once beloved Enid Blyton, for so long.The Faraway Tree series were particular favourites of mine however, and I had been hankering to revisit them for some time. I knew I was taking the risk of marring
So according to others' reviews this is the dumb American version. I grew up reading and loving the original amazing English version. My Baba would read it to me and my sister every night before bed, and each time we got to the end we'd start over again. I've carried it around with me since my childhood as a relic of my past. This weekend was my first time revisiting it as an adult, and I swear I remember there being more pictures, but I guess I just had a very active imagination. This book is
This is one of my most favourite/cherished books of all time. My dad read this to me when he tucked me into bed. Fortunately my Dad is from England so I don't have the lousy American version. I couldn't find the cover of it on here! How sad! Anyway, this book is full of enchantment and wonders. It's about this village that exists in a tree and all of the weird creatures that live there. Some near by children befriend them and join them on their many adventures. I always thought that was the
This is the third book in The Magic Faraway Tree trilogy. This series was my favourite when I was young and I was so excited to share it with my children for the first time, but not for the last. We will definitely read them all again.**Interviews with my 4 and 6 year old kids**Me: What did you think of the story?Mr 6: It was awesome and not a bit stupid. It was just awesome and no stupid at all.Miss 4: I like it.Me: Which bit did you like the best?Mr 6: I liked it when they saved the Faraway
The third one felt a little slapdash in the admittedly erratic plotting style established. Rick/Dick is gone, instead we have Connie, a spoilt girl who is constantly (and increasingly unfairly) picked on and chastised by the others and reminded what a horrid little girl she is. Even at the end, when she's pretty much redeemed herself. Harsh. In fact, one of her biggest 'sins' is her curiosity. Apparently a negative personality trait in the female form! Sadly, I'm not sure much has changed.Still,
What an exciting read for big imaginations! The Folk of the Faraway Tree is an Enid Blyton tale, following the adventures of four children in a magical woods. At the heart of the woods is an enchanted tree which is the home of some intriguing characters and mysterious lands. The children soon explore the tree and it's inhabitants and adventure quickly unfolds. It appears clear that the author intended to captivate the imaginations of young children with this book. As I child, I can remember
