Keep trying to get my children to read the books but they dont seem to be bothered about her, they would rather read Roald Dahl. If I keep persisting them maybe one day they will try her books and hopefully like me they will love her too.

June 26, 2012 at 9:16 pmMy favourite children’s author was always George Layton, author of “The Fib and other stories”. The way he crafted out images of his world into my juvenile mind, the relationships between the schoolfriends, parents and teachers, and the sheer pleasure of the tales unravelling in front of me. Layton was a genuis.

June 26, 2012 at 10:22 pmAs a child just starting secondary school I was captivated and enthralled by Enid Blyton’s Mallory Towers – I so wanted to go the school which sounded so much more exciting than normal school.
Enid Blyton was the best and I always looked for her books in the school library every time.

June 27, 2012 at 12:37 amI was mad on Enid Blyton. Her stories were very far removed from my own life and, in hindsight, quite un-PC in places but in the main she was a great story teller. A great contrast with great contemporary children’s authors like Jacqueline Wilson.

July 1, 2012 at 12:01 amMy favourite author when I was a child was a toss-up between Cpt W.E. Johns (he wrote the Biggles books) and Roald Dahl (his descriptions were so vivid).
Now, as a father, I love reading Roald Dahl to my sons, but I also love reading David Walliams books – he is very similar in tone to Dahl. My boys love both!
