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.

Fünf Freunde – Sammeledition
Die Lieblingsbücher aus meiner Kindheit.
Inhalt:
In diesem Sammelschuber sind alle elf Doppelbände der Fünf Freunde vereint! Alle 21 Abenteuer plus acht Kurzgeschichten sorgen für pausenlos spannende Unterhaltung. Ein Muss für alle Fans von den berühmtesten Kinderdetektiven der Welt!
Fazit:
Mein erstes Buch der Fünf Freunde Reihe bekam ich mit acht Jahren zu Weihnachten. Ich kann mich noch sehr gut erinnern, dass ich nicht so ganz von dem Buch begeistert war. Doch meine Mutter überzeugte mich davon. Beinahe zehn Jahre später bin ich noch immer ein großer Fan dieser Reihe. Ich habe circa 30 Bücher und über 70 Hörbücher dieser Reihe.
Ich kann diese Bücher wirklich jedem jungen Leser nahelegen! Freundschaft, Abenteuer und Zusammenhalt sind wichtige Themen in den Büchern.
Obwohl die Bücher schon sehr alt sind, sind sie noch immer aktuell.
Die Autorin Enid Blyton ist ein großes Vorbild für mich! In ihrem Leben hat sie über 750 Bücher und 10.000 Kurzgeschichten geschrieben. Ich finde das wirklich unglaublich!

Fantastic series. Great adventure books for boys and girls alike. I read these when I was a little girl and loved them. Reading them again as an adult brought back a lot of fond memories. A must read for all.
