Product Information

Jenis petualangannya 11-12 dengan Lima Sekawan (((o(*°▽°*)o))) yang artinya: Lorong Rahasia! Gua Persembunyian! Harta!! (✧ω✧) ...atau minimal sesuatu yang berharga [̲̅Rp(̲̅ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°̲̅)̲̅✧] I got the boxed set for Christmas when I was 40, I read them again. Again when I was 50 and yes, I'll read them again someday.

Enid Blyton (1897-1968) πραγματικά δε χρειάζεται συστάσεις. Είναι η συγγραφέας που μας χάρισε αξέχαστες στιγμές ανάγνωσης και μας σύστησε ευρηματικές παρέες παιδιών που ζουν περιπέτειες, λύνουν μυστήρια, ταξιδεύουν, κινδυνεύουν και χάρη σ’ αυτούς περνούσαν ευχάριστα και όμορφα οι εξωσχολικές μας ώρες. Ποιος δεν έχει διαβάσει τους Μυστικούς 7 ή τους 5 φίλους, ποιο κορίτσι δεν έχει ονειρευτεί το Σεν Κλερ ή το Μάλορυ Τάουερ; Έτσι λοιπόν οι εκδόσεις Μίνωας επανακυκλοφορούν τη σειρά «Περιπέτεια» ξεκινώντας από την αρχή. Φύγαμε για «Περιπέτεια στο νησί»; Originally, the series was supposed to end after this episode, but under the great demand of dedicated fans, Blyton wrote two more episodes: And then there's the casual racism. There's some genuine room for debate on Blyton's intentions in this regard; by the end, much of what seems at first to be casual racism from Blyton is revealed to have been Blyton's assumption of, and attempting manipulation of, the reader's own casual racism; and so I'd be reluctant to start burning effigies purely on the evidence of this book.I have to admit that Enid Blyton is one of my guilty pleasures in-between reading novels, (auto)biographies and non-fiction books on WW II. To be honest, it wasn't reading, it was sharing the adventures with the characters, they did get into some predicaments, ones we all dreamed about getting into ourselves as kids in real life!

Blyton was a prolific author of children's books, who penned an estimated 800 books over about 40 years. Her stories were often either children's adventure and mystery stories, or fantasies involving magic. Notable series include: The Famous Five, The Secret Seven, The Five Find-Outers, Noddy, The Wishing Chair, Mallory Towers, and St. Clare's. But sometimes, it can be a unexpected pleasure. You know it won't live up to your memories, and so your expectations can be low, and easily surpassed.Dulu pas SMP dipinjemin seri Petualang ini tapi yang vol.6 ...dan karena waktu itu juga sudah baca Lima Sekawan, STOP, dan Trio Detektif, rasa-rasanya keempat tokoh utama di seri ini jadi kurang meninggalkan kesan~ Fortunately I have old versions of these books in German and in English (I bought all 8 books in English on my first trip to the UK in 1981 at Foyle's in London). Later versions were often modernized to make them politically correct (which I hate as that's not what I remember reading when I was a child). My favorites are "Castle of Adventure", "Valley of Adventure" (her masterpiece), "Sea of Adventure" and "Circus of Adventure". Dinah Mannering: Philip's younger sister of about twelve at the beginning of the series. Like her brother, she has a tuft of hair standing up atop her head, but she shares neither his gift in attracting, nor his love for, animals, especially the small creeping types (mice, insects, snakes etc.). Temperamental as she is, she often finds herself the target of her brother's teasing, but otherwise she is quite level-headed, tough, intelligent and grown-up for her age.
