Secret Seven 01 The Secret Seven

Bought this for a friend's daughter. She enjoyed it as much as I did when I was her age when I lived in England. A must read over there

What an entertaining story. All children in the house are reading it again and again. Elders have to read in the night after children go to bed !!!

Entertaining children's literature of a bygone era.. nostalgic and classic Not to be taken too seriously - a pleasant read

Great story with lots of characters and excitement. I'm going to recommend it to my mum. Can't wait rob read the next one!

She has to be the best story teller there ever was. I really loved all of her books when I was a kid.

It's great description and it's very adventurous I love how it's so creative I recommend this book to anyone who has a wonderful sense of imagination.

Good

This is the first book in the Secret Seven Series (although Peter and Janet had appeared in an earlier book called “At Seaside Cottage” in 1947 and the formation of the Secret Seven was told in “Secret of the Old Mill” in 1948). After a very successful republishing of the Famous Five series, to celebrate 70 years of the books, we are treated to a new printing of all fifteen of the Seven Series, illustrated by Tony Ross – probably best known for the Horrid Henry books, his style will be instantly recognisable to children everywhere. The Secret Seven consists of Peter and his sister Janet, and their friends Jack, Colin, George, Pam and Barbara . Peter and Janet’s spaniel Scamper is an unofficial member of the Seven and helps warn them when Jack’s annoying little sister, Susie, is creeping about spying on them. Their meeting place is the shed at the bottom of Peter and Janet’s garden and there is no entry unless the children are wearing their club badges and remember the password. When the children meet up in the Christmas holidays, Jack first forgets the password and then loses his badge in the field opposite a spooky old house, where the children were making snowmen. Banned from going out after lunch, Jack decides to creep out of the house and go and see whether he can find his missing badge at night and discovers a mystery worth investigating... I have really enjoyed re-reading this book to my daughter at bedtime and look forward to sharing the entire series with her. Slightly shorter than the Famous Five books, these are a great introduction to Enid Blyton’s adventure stories and will appeal to both boys and girls. In order, these are: 1. The Secret Seven (1948) aka The Secret Seven and the Mystery of the Empty House 2. Secret Seven Adventure (1950) aka The Secret Seven and the Circus Adventure 3. Well Done Secret Seven (1951) aka The Secret Seven and the Tree House Adventure 4. Secret Seven On the Trail (1952) aka The Secret Seven and the Railroad Mystery 5. Go Ahead Secret Seven (1953) aka The Secret Seven Get Their Man 6. Good Work Secret Seven (1954) aka The Secret Seven and the Case of the Stolen Car 7. Secret Seven Win Through (1955) aka The Secret Seven and the Hidden Cave Adventure 8. Three Cheers Secret Seven (1956) aka The Secret Seven and the Grim Secret 9. Secret Seven Mystery (1957) aka The Secret Seven and the Missing Girl Mystery 10. Puzzle for the Secret Seven (1958) aka The Secret Seven and the Case of the Music Lover 11. Secret Seven Fireworks (1959) aka The Secret Seven and the Bonfire Adventure 12. Good Old Secret Seven (1960) aka The Secret Seven and the Old Fort Adventure 13.

Secret seven has been and will be one of my all time favourites. This version was for the Kindle and downloaded quickly. Its a fun story loved by everyone both young and old. The adventures will never grow old. Definitely a staple book for anyones shelf.

Cool Book. It's Christmas time and all the Secret Seven and Scamper the dog go out to make four snowmen outside a desolate old house where only a deaf old caretaker lives. Unfortunately, Jack loses his Secret Seven badge and cannot find anyone to make a new one for him so in the dead of night goes to look where the snowmen are, thinking he may have lost it there. Great! he finds it but what are these strange goings on at night at the house and who or what is making that strange terrifying sound. Is it a hostage? Needless to say, Secret Seven save the day. Awesome book.
