The Faraway Tree Collection by Enid Blyton
Leonid Dobychin's The Town of N, an unrecognized masterpiece of the Soviet 1930s, virtually vanished, together with its author, following its publication in 1935 and the subsequent vilification of Dobychin by Leningrad's cultural authorities. It portrays a fallen provincial world reminiscent of the town of N found in Gogol's Dead Souls, a place populated with characters who are petty, grasping, perfidious, and cruel, quite unlike the positive heroes of socialist realist novels.
Enid Blyton, who died in 1968, is one of the most successful children's authors of all time. She wrote over 700 books, which have been translated into more than forty languages and have sold more than 400 million copies around the world. Her stories of magic, adventure and friendship continue to enchant children the world over. Enid Blyton's beloved works include The Famous Five, The Secret Seven, Malory Towers, The Faraway Tree, and Adventure series. Rebecca Cobb is a rising star in children's picture books. Having collaborated on two picture storybooks with the Orange Prize winner Helen Dunmore, Rebecca's debut solo project, the hugely accomplished and heartbreakingly beautiful Missing Mummy, was published by Macmillan in 2011. The gorgeously funny and well-received Lunchtime followed and, in addition, Rebecca's stunning illustrations accompanied Julia's Donaldson's wonderfully lyrical story in The Paper Dolls. Aunt Amelia, Rebecca Cobb's most recent picture book, is every bit as warm, engaging and original as her existing books, and is sure to continue to establish her as a real one to watch. Rebecca lives in Cornwall.
