Enid Bylton knows how to hit me nostalgically with her boarding-school series. I loved reading this when I was in primary school. I still love it! This series made me excited and motivated for school!

I read these books as a child and remember them as exciting and fun. I'm now reading them to my 5 year old daughter and although they are incredibly dated there is something special about the quintessential English life they portray and my daughter loved it. We now have the rest of the series to go along with the new Malory Towers books which have been written.

My favourite book of all time I would definitely recommend. I love Enid Blyton in general, she is my favourite author. This book could suit people of all ages. But I would say people over the age of 7 or 8 would understand some off the tricky words better as it is set in the past.
