About this deal

From a bad beginning which includes a fight with one of the teachers, the twins' better sides become apparent and they begin blending a little and enjoying the reactions of their educators to the japes of one irrepressible girl in their class. As in our own schools there are some extremely talented students at St Clare's and you will be amazed by their prowess. There is a class-clown and a brilliant one at that. You'll meet her. Pat and Isabel even attend an enormous birthday supper which includes such delicacies as sardines, a pork pie, a cake with almond icing surrounded with sugar-roses, peppermint creams, and to make it more exciting it takes place at 12a.m — (yes a.m) and it's all strictly against the rules but who cares? In her leisure time Blyton led the life of a typical suburban housewife, gardening, and playing golf or bridge. She rarely left England, preferring to holiday by the English coast, almost invariably in Dorset, [72] where she and her husband took over the lease of an 18-hole golf course at Studland Bay in 1951. [73] Capitalising on her success, with a loyal and ever-growing readership, [15] Blyton produced a new edition of many of her series such as the Famous Five, the Five Find-Outers and St. Clare's every year in addition to many other novels, short stories and books. In 1946 Blyton launched the first in the Malory Towers series of six books based around the schoolgirl Darrell Rivers, First Term at Malory Towers, which became extremely popular, particularly with girls. [45] Peak output: 1949–1959 [ edit ]

In book two, it's the start of the Easter Term and the twins are looking forward to meeting all their friends at St Clare's once more. Si kembar Pat dan Isabel wataknya tak jauh berbeda, hanya Pat kadang lebih berani dan pemberontak. Teman-teman mereka di St Clare karakterisasinya lebih smooth, dalam artian tidak ada yg menonjol sekali dan nyaris membaur antara si ini dan si anu. Tapi ini msh buku pertama, barangkali setelah baca ulang seluruh serinya, pendapat saya bisa berubah.

The first of twenty-eight books in Blyton's Old Thatch series, The Talking Teapot and Other Tales, was published in 1934, the same year as Brer Rabbit Retold; [22] (note that Brer Rabbit originally featured in Uncle Remus stories by Joel Chandler Harris), her first serial story and first full-length book, Adventures of the Wishing-Chair, followed in 1937. The Enchanted Wood, the first book in the Faraway Tree series, published in 1939, is about a magic tree inspired by the Norse mythology that had fascinated Blyton as a child. [7] According to Blyton's daughter Gillian the inspiration for the magic tree came from "thinking up a story one day and suddenly she was walking in the enchanted wood and found the tree. In her imagination she climbed up through the branches and met Moon-Face, Silky, the Saucepan Man and the rest of the characters. She had all she needed." [23] As in the Wishing-Chair series, these fantasy books typically involve children being transported into a magical world in which they meet fairies, goblins, elves, pixies and other mythological creatures. In book six, Pat breaks her arm and misses the first weeks of term. Will Pat be upset when new girl Amanda becomes Isabel's new best friend? Rewrites a blight on Blyton's legacy... by golly".
