Grew up on Blyton books: Famous Five, Secret Seven, the "Adventure" books (which were excellent). As a child of the seventies and eighties they were awesome.

Simpler times though so no idea how they stand up today.

@revenant You're kidding??? I know there was the "Noddy" controversy (won't expand as I'll upset somebody for sure) but the others? My childhood just died a little 😟

Is that ALL her books and in Canada? I know there was some banning over here and she was accused of classism etc but I don't think they're all banned. I may have to go Googling now.
