Perfect for an 8 year old - Rated
My 8 yr old daugher has just read this and loves it, especially the tricks they play.
My favourite blast from the past - Rated
Ah, how much did I love these books when I was a kid? I so desperately wanted to be friends with Darrell Rivers et al and tip-toe down to the beach for midnight feasts with lashings and lashings of ginger beer!
I must have read the whole series at least 10 times, and I recently rediscovered them when I was off work sick for a few days - I curled up under my duvet with mugs of lemsip and lost myslef in the best boarding school in the world for a few days. I'm in my 30's now (well into them, but shhh!) and I could have been a 10 year old again, they made me feel carefree and happy.
The series follows Darrell Rivers and friends (Sally, Mary Lou etc) through their 5 years at boarding school on the Cornish coast and we meet and fall in love with an aray of fabuous characters along the way including spoilt, sulky Gwendoline, headstrong Alicia and tomboy Bobbie.
I just loved these books years ago and I still love them now. Whether you have never read any Mallory Towers or you grew up with them like me, then you are about to get a real treat by picking this book up. Enjoy!
Enid Blyton Rocks! - Rated
Anyone who reads Enid Blyton books will be thoroughly impressed with her writing. I read as many of her books as I could get my hands on from age 8+, but even still it's wonderful to read them again after a hard day at work - remembering simpler times! Having been to a boarding school, it's not quite like Blyton writes - but I wish it had been! Great adventures, highly recommend it!
Loved these books when I was a child... - Rated
I adored these books when I was a child, despite growing up in a council estate in west yorkshire and being as far removed from the girls heading off to boarding school as I could possibly be, I read every one in the series so many times my copies literally fell apart.
Even in the late seventies the language and references were somewhat old-fashioned, but a great story will always be just that and I was carried away by the characters and the great world of Malory Towers and wasn't put off in the slightest.
I have to say when reading Harry Potter and the Philoshophers Stone for the first time the thing I enjoyed particularly was the 'school story' element which reminded me of reading the Malory Towers series when I was a child. I'm hope todays kids will enjoy these books as much as I did when I was a youngster.
I would recommend these books for girls aged 8 - 11 and can't wait to share them with my daughters now they have been republished.
No matter how many times you read, you are hooked! - Rated
As the first in the series, this book sets readers up for a fun adventure series that you want to read over and over again just so that you never have to finish reading them.
