My sixteenth Noddy book: You’re a Good Friend, Noddy!

So we’re back to #16 in the series this week, for my 16th review. I was supposed to do this one last time but got the order wrong! This is a strange little story, I have to say. We begin … Continue reading

My fifteenth Noddy book: Noddy Has an Adventure

A confession to start: this isn’t the book I was supposed to do this week. I’m trying to do them in series order so You’re a Good Friend Noddy should have come first. But Noddy Has an Adventure is what I … Continue reading

My fourteenth Noddy book: Be Brave, Little Noddy

My fourteenth Noddy book is the thirteenth in the series (that isn’t confusing at all) and it’s one I only have in paperback. I’m not sure of dating it but I’m guessing around the 70s or 80s as it is … Continue reading

My thirteenth Noddy book: Noddy and the Magic Rubber

This is one of my tattier Noddys as it’s missing its spine completely. It’s just about still in one piece though. THE STORY I’ve noticed that most of the stories start at breakfast, but there’s no visit from the milkman … Continue reading

Noddy in Fuzzy Felt Toyland

As promised I got out my fuzzy felt set and took plenty of pictures for you. On trying to make the suggested pictures I discovered there were actually quite a lot of missing pieces but mostly just the narrow strips … Continue reading

My twelfth Noddy book: Noddy at the Seaside

This is the seventh title in the series (so I’ve actually read a few in a row now) and one I’ve been looking forward to. I love the beach and the seaside. Most if not all of the Noddys I’ve … Continue reading

My eleventh Noddy book: Noddy Goes to School

This was one I bought in a big lot of Noddy books and unfortunately when it came I discovered it was a reprint, one of the ones with the different sort of lettering on the front. The dustjacket still has … Continue reading

My tenth Noddy book: Well Done Noddy!

Not the book I was expecting to be reviewing this week due to various rescheduling issues over the past few weeks but never mind. Well Done Noddy! is the fifth book in the series, and for a brief time I … Continue reading

My ninth Noddy book: Here Comes Noddy Again

This is number four in the series of Noddy books, and one of the ones I picked up on eBay recently. Unfortunately the front board is completely detached from the rest of the book (which is more than just a … Continue reading

My eighth Noddy book: Noddy Goes to Toyland

I’ve been doing a bit of eBaying again (a dangerous pastime!) and I’ve now got a much larger collection of Noddy books. Not all of them yet, there’s four I don’t have, but it gives me plenty of new stories … Continue reading

My sixth Noddy book: Noddy Goes to Sea

My sixth Noddy book should have been #15, Do Look Out, Noddy! which is the next in the series actually, and the one which was mentioned in the Monday post. However, me being the eejit that I am, I grabbed the … Continue reading

My fifth Noddy book: Noddy and the Bumpy Dog

My fifth Noddy book is #14 (another big jump, I know,) Noddy and the Bumpy Dog. It was another Alton buy, and one of my £1 bargains. It’s fairly tatty and lacks a dustjacket but I don’t mind. The illustrator has … Continue reading

Whit Monday

It’s Whit Monday and I feel it’s time for some confessions. Of a book-buying nature, of course. My books from my trip down south arrived last week, and I had an exciting five minutes going through them all and remembering … Continue reading

Serendipitously, my third Noddy book is actually the third book of the series; Noddy and His Car. (My first Noddy book was #2 and my second was #8.) A BARGAIN BUY As I mentioned in a recent Monday post, I … Continue reading

Monday

So it’s back to the real world for me today, the April holidays are officially over. Unsurprisingly, I did some book buying while I was away! Only one Blyton though, a paperback Noddy which cost me all of 25p. I … Continue reading

My second Noddy book: Noddy Gets Into Trouble

My first Noddy book was the second in the series (Hurrah for Little Noddy), and my second Noddy book is Noddy Gets Into Trouble, the eighth book. That’s what I get for buying a random pair from eBay because they … Continue reading

My first Noddy book: Hurrah for Little Noddy

As I’ve possibly mentioned before, to my knowledge I’ve never read a Noddy book before. I’ve always been aware of Noddy, and I could probably sing a good chunk of the TV theme song (despite not being sure whether I’ve … Continue reading

Who’s Who in Enid Blyton by Eva Rice, a (very critical) review 3: Toys and Enchantment

Welcome to the final part of my review. The first (Adventure Stories) was a rather bad review while part two (School Stories) was a bit more positive. Let’s see how this one fares. TOYS AND ENCHANTMENT Enid Blyton’s Fairy Folk … Continue reading
