The Naughtiest Girl Set, 10 Books, RRP 49.99 (Naughtiest Girl in the School,...

I recommend this book for young readers like me (ten year old). The story is very interesting, can’t wait to start book 2

I have been very disappointed with the new crops of children's books I found in the library and reading requirements from school. until I found Enid Bylton 's children's books. I bought the Famous 5 and Naughtiest Girl! My little girl is completely charmed by the books! It is such a shamed that entire Long Island library system do not have any of these wonderful children's books! When your 7 years old asked to read just another page please, it felt good. Granted the books are published 70+years ago, and some of the stuff is a little out dated, like my Little one have no idea what a Gramophone is, so we had fun looking it up and find on YouTube how the thing works! Yes, over the summer, my little one finished one of the Famous 5 and one of the Naughtiest Girl! She loves them! We draw the main characters in the book, and she found out that how I imagine the characters and how she imagined is different, makes her think! I especially love the messages and morals of the stories I like my child to learn! Granted it is not the most diverse in physical character, but the personalities are!

This was a great look back at a different time and place. Loved the story but one aspect that disturbed me was how all the children at the school had to give up all their food gifts and money and put them in a pool for the good of all. Scary. However, I would glady recommend this book.

What is interesting is that it is a good book and fun, but not exactly modern. The parents want to teach their wealthy, naughty child how to be a good girl and nice to others. She is an only child and a spoilt brat and her parents think she needs to be around other children and learn how to get along with others at a boarding school for girls. She is very attractive and has a good brain and they want her "To work hard, get good grades, be obedient, share with other children, be quiet, clean, have good manners..." At this, one thinks that this is not a modern idea of children. You may wish that more children were like this, but today's way of thinking of children is quite different. Manners? Quiet? Obedient? Work hard? Anyway, it's one way of looking at raising children back in the '40's and 1950's. And you can spend time with some different values for children for a while in this fun and interesting period book.

I ❤️ Enid Blyton! I read ALL her books as a little girl myself and I am thrilled to find them again on Amazon.com! I have introduced my 7 year old to her books and she loves reading about the Naughtiest girl! When she done with this boxset, I will purchase the other Enid Blyton boxset, and I can't wait for her to start reading about The Famous Five!🤩

good

Excellent book! Came in good condition!

I didn't hate it but is was not an awesome book I'll give About three stars to this book but if you do like things like Junie B jones then don't hesitate to read it!!!!!!!

How lovely to re-read some of my favourite author's stories on my kindle. Enid Blyton captures the era she wrote in wonderfully. The Naughtiest Girl series shows how Boarding School was part of the norm back then. Without television, ipods, computers & the internet, the children made their own fun. After-school classes & groups for hobbies were encouraged & lying & cheating were not. This book, the first in the series (I only remember reading the first two or three) starts with naughty Elizabeth Allen being sent to Boarding School. She tries vehemently to be sent home by constantly being naughty. But after a few weeks, she finds out a secret about one of her fellow school girls that makes her realise that being nice is far more rewarding. Also as the school allows the older children to "govern" themselves, the children can sort out suitable punishments for the unruly, as Elizabeth finds out to her cost. The only grumble I have is the monetary system. The books were written in the age of pounds, shillings & pence but someone has decided that modern children will not understand this & have re-writen it to use pounds & pence only. Children are not daft & will accept that once upon a time money was different, so why change it? So, money-editing aside, this is a charming book that isn't full of "tally-ho girls" & "who's for a rousing game of hockey" & I will certainly be reading the series to any children I have in the future.

Granddaughter loves these books

両親にあまやかされて、おてんばでわがままいっぱいに育ったエリザベスは、とうとう全寮制の学校に入学させられることになりました。でも学校がいやでいやで仕方がないエリザベスは、退学にされれば家に帰れるだろうと期待して、いたずらの限りを尽くして大暴れ。けれども彼女の学校の先生は生徒を罰しないのです！生徒の悪い行いは生徒全員が集まる総会で、どうすればその子が良い子に変われるか、その方法が話し合われます。 そして１学期限りで家に帰ろうと思い詰めていたエリザベスにも親友が出来、様々な楽しい行事を経験するうちに、やがて学校が大好きになっていきます。子供はどんな子も必ずよい子になれる！という善意にあふれ、放課後は町に出かけておやつやアイスクリームを買ったり映画を見たり出来るユートピアのような小学校、こんな学校が嫌いな人がいるはずはありませんよね！ なんといっても驚かされるのは、この小説が1940年に書かれていることです。同じ作者の他の作品、あるいは他の学園物シリーズと比べてみても、小学生が放課後町に出かけて、お小遣いを使える全寮制の学校、というのは子どもの夢をみたす空想上の学校ではないかと想像しますが、それだけに今読んでも時代の変化による違和感が少なく、楽しく読み進められるとことでしょう。

Lief alles super und problemlos. immer wieder gerne , sehr empfehlenswert. Das Set war in einem einwandfreien Zustand und das Lesen war eine echte Freude.

This book has really a very good story . It also give all of us a message . About a naughty girl who came good. I loved this book very much
