George, Timmy and the Stranger in the Storm by Enid Blyton

George, aged nine, and Timmy the puppy continue their adventures in this exciting story. George and Timmy are watching a storm from an upstairs window at Kirrin Cottage when a flash of lighting reveals a small figure running along the cliff path. The next day they discover a boy sheltering nearby. He's on the run from cruel carers and begs George not to tell anyone he's there. So, when a strange couple turn up asking questions, George decides it's time to find him a new hiding place...These prequels are an ideal lead up to the Famous Five books for contemporary 7-10 year old readers. George was Enid Blyton's favourite and most fully realised character, whom she based on herself. Timmy was based on her own spaniel, Laddie.
Enid Blyton died in 1968 but remains one of the best-known and best-loved writers of children's stories. She is consistently voted a children's favourite in author polls. She has over 600 children's books to her credit, including the Famous Five series, the Secret Seven series, the Naughtiest Girl series (all Hodder) and the Malory Towers and St Clare series (both available from Hodder on audio). Sue is a full-time writer who writes both under her own name (for OUP and Mammoth, amongst others) and under various pseudonymns as a contributor to series fiction, including our own bestselling Animal Ark. Her book, The Ghost in the Mirror, was shortlisted for the Whitbread Award, while her novel, The Night After Tomorrow, was the winner of the Angus Book Award. She has also written two non-fiction titles for Hodder: Heroic Horses and Devoted Dogs.
