Published by MacMillan Press. 1st 2000. Very good condition in a very good dustwrapper.

Enid Blyton's work is probably better known that any other chldren's author worldwide but there has been relatively little serious attention paid to her. Negative criticism has been plentiful but this study suggests that previous critics have been misguided. It gives detailed readings of Noddy, the Famous Five and Malory Towers and proposes a new interpretation locating her in the oral tradition. It also unlocks the secret mechanism by which she entrances so many young children. Black boards with gilt titles to spine. 266 pages. ISBN: 0333747186. Spine and corners bumped. Contents fine. Dustwrapper is edge worn and faded to spine and spine edge of front panel.
