The Secret Seven is the first of a series of British children's mystery novels. It's beautifully written in the same style as Nancy Drew and The Horse Masters. Simple, but clever. Though they are children's books, intended for an 8 year old, and written in 1973, I enjoyed this first book immensely. For what it was. I would love to read this book with an advanced reader of a younger age, someone who will laugh out loud at the funny bits and be genuinely thrilled when the mystery is solved.
Thanks to Blyton I will also be adding "delumptious" to my wombination vocabulary.
