Has there been one single author who has shaped as many young readers as Enid Blyton? With Children’s Day just past, we’re dedicating this month’s Bibliography to the life and works of possibly the best-known children’s author of our time. We discuss her tumultuous life, her approach to writing, the various criticisms levelled her way over time - and of course, our own childhood attachments to Blyton’s books.
