So these were my childhood stories so I have an immense amount of nostalgia for them but I have also read them several times since. Reading the reviews here makes me believe that my version of the books is probably revised because I don't think that there was that much racism and sexism in it – not that I believe that Blyton is innocent of that. (Also now that I will lock all the books of her she will become my number one writer on here...)
