Enid Mary Blyton (1897–1968) was an English author of children's books.
Born in South London, Blyton was the eldest of three children, and showed an early interest in music and reading. She was educated at St. Christopher's School, Beckenham, and - having decided not to pursue her music - at Ipswich High School, where she trained as a kindergarten teacher. She taught for five years before her 1924 marriage to editor Hugh Pollock, with whom she had two daughters. This marriage ended in divorce, and Blyton remarried in 1943, to surgeon Kenneth Fraser Darrell Waters. She died in 1968, one year after her second husband.
Blyton was a prolific author of children's books, who penned an estimated 800 books over about 40 years. Her stories were often either children's adventure and mystery stories, or fantasies involving magic. Notable series include: The Famous Five, The Secret Seven, The Five Find-Outers, Noddy, The Wishing Chair, Mallory Towers, and St. Clare's.
According to the Index Translationum, Blyton was the fifth most popular author in the world in 2007, coming after Lenin but ahead of Shakespeare.

From stunning me with toys that talk and had tea parties, Enid Blyton unlocked the Mystery genre for me. While reading the "Secret Seven", I convinced myself that I was a part of the group too, and was always a part of their lemonade and biscuits party. I distinctly remember them having a dog, and wondered how smart that atta boy! was. Secret Seven reminds me that I was a small child, still innocent while Blyton through his words warned us to always be vigilant, like a doting father. and remain curious about things around, especially our surroundings. Imagination is bound to no limit, and Enid Blyton is the pure definition of it.

Although these were great fun to read and inspired my friends and I to create our own secret club, looking back as an adult the only characters that had any personality were Peter and Janet and the naughty Susie. All the others were just a bunch of characterless names really, probably because there were too many of them...

Enid Blyton's Secret Seven brought so much excitement to our childhood! We couldn’t resist forming our own mystery-solving groups, just like the Seven. Truly unforgettable!
