Discovered today that you can buy a boxed set of all of the Famous Five books and Secret Seven books. I keep telling myself that I want these to put away for potential grandkids, but in truth I'd just like to have them. These were my comfort books when I was eight to ten - I read every one I could get my hands on. It would be nice to share them with a younger generation, although I wonder if they'd be as well-received today? No computers or mobile phones, and I can't recall the kids ever watching tv! The Harry Potter books lacked those things for the most part and they were huge so perhaps there's still a place for stories about kids having adventures.
