Description
The later school years at Malory Towers bring Darrell Rivers and her friends closer to leaving the place that has shaped their lives. New challenges sit alongside familiar rivalries and loyalties, giving ordinary school events a stronger sense of responsibility. Enid Blyton’s collection offers readers the pleasure of following characters over time, with stories about leadership, friendship and the mixed feelings that come with approaching a new stage of life.
Age suitability and learning: Primary (6-8), Older children (9-12). The longer narrative suits children ready to sustain attention across a developing story, whether reading independently or sharing it aloud. Following characters and events supports comprehension, vocabulary and reading stamina; discussing motives, settings and choices encourages inference, empathy and imaginative thinking.
Available at QT Toys in Battersea.
