a bibliomaniac, Nov 17 2005
By A. Weis - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Wishing Chair Collections (Hardcover)
I think the only reason I became an avid reader was because I was introduced to Enid Blyton books as a child. Born and raised in the tropics(part of the British Empire at one time), I found it hard to believe that I coudn't find them easily at bookstores here in the USA when I wanted to buy them for my daughter. I would say the first books I chose to pick up for her to read were the Wishing Chair series and the Faraway Tree series. I think they really represent what Enid Blyton's books are all about. Her books are not only imaginative and entertaining they contain good values and an appreciation of nature. The Wishing Chair series is a set of stories about a boy and girl who end up with a magical chair that sprouts wings on each of its legs. And when it does its ready to fly off and take the children to visit mysterious lands full of magic and wonder. For those children who are not ready for spine tinglers and chillers, her fairy tales create a warm, comforting setting with just the right touches of fun and humor to encourage even the most reluctant of readers to continue turning pages and asking for more. My daughter and I have since collected over 250 of her books. This year, I donated extra copies that I owned to her elementary school because I really believe that her books can reach out to any reluctant reader. My daughter said that she even found teachers reading them during their spare time. If you have spare copies of her books, please consider donating them to schools. Most school libraries are rarely able to obtain them.

the best!, Aug 18 2006
By Mie M. Tha "Yams" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Wishing Chair Collections (Hardcover)
I have to agree with the users below. I was raised in Malaysia and most books were imported from the UK. These were the books that really helped my english. I am really surprised that they don't sell these books in the US. I wholeheartedly recommend Enid Blyton's books to all children, I wish I still had mine!
