What to expect
After the Five see a boy being kidnapped at the beach, they set out to find him. But where have the kidnappers hidden the boy?
Will Timmy lead them to the answer?
In addition to the Famous Five novels, Enid Blyton wrote a clutch of short stories based on the characters. These were published in magazines and collected in the Famous Five Short Story Collection (Hodder). For the first time, the complete and original text of Good Old Timmy (1956) appears in an individual volume, illustrated with brand new colour art by Jamie Littler.
