The Famous Five: Book 1: Five On A Treasure Island

Very good , fast story , easy to read and intresting

This was a gift for a little girl who's just beginning to read. I read this series myself as a child and I'm excited to know I'm starting her off on a series of adventures with a group of children she'll be able to relate to. Great book for children! It arrived in good condition but took a long time to get to me.

Je cherchais quelque chose à lire pour asseoir mon tout nouveau niveau intermédiaire en anglais et The famous five est parfait. Il fait parti de ces vieux livres ou faire rêver les enfants et leur faire vivre des aventures n'était pas encore trop niais, ce qui est donc très bien pour les adultes en apprentissage de la langue. Je comprends ce que je lis et les mots que je ne connais pas sont compréhensifs par le contexte. Je ne l'ai pas encore fini mais je m'y sens bien. Et je pense que je prendrai la suite car c'est une série ! :)

Se lo dieron a mi hija para leer en el Instituto, la historia es bonita.

Let’s get one thing straight—Five on a Treasure Island is a timeless gem. Enid Blyton’s storytelling still captures imaginations like few others can. Secret maps, mysterious islands, hidden treasure… what more could any young (or young-at-heart) reader want? Now, full disclosure: the book I received didn’t match the cover shown on the website. It was a third-party edition, a bit more plain and not quite the nostalgic vibe I expected. BUT—once you crack it open, none of that matters. The story is just as gripping, the gang just as charming, and Timmy the dog still steals the show. So while the cover may not have looked like the one from my childhood memories, the adventure inside was every bit as brilliant. A great read for kids and a lovely trip down memory lane for adults. Just don’t judge this book by its cover.
