A new review

This review came to us via email from Alex, aged 11:

The Secret Seven (series) by Enid Blyton

The secret seven are a group of kids starting up a secret club called the Secret Seven, S.S. for short. The members of the S.S. are Peter (leader) Janet (Peter's sister), Jack, Pam, Barbara, Colin and George.

When they formed the club it was just for fun and playing. Then Peter said "we have to do something with this club", after that George said "we could solve mysteries". So after that they solved all kinds of mysteries.

There are 15 books in the series. My favorite is no.9, Secret Seven Mystery.
