Overview
Step onto the Faraway Tree and climb into six color adventures from the world Enid Blyton created more than 80 years ago. This paperback set gathers six short, full-color stories following Joe, Beth, Frannie, and cousin Rick as they explore ever-changing lands with magical friends Silky, Moon-Face, and the Saucepan Man. Written especially for newly confident readers, each story is short, playful, and beautifully illustrated, making this collection a wonderful introduction to Blyton's beloved Faraway Tree world for children starting to read chapter books alone.
About the Books
This six-book paperback collection brings together standalone color short stories set in the magical world of the Faraway Tree, first introduced in Enid Blyton's classic Enchanted Wood books and refreshed here for a new generation of early readers. In The Land of Dreams, The Land of Magic Medicines, The Land of Toys, The Land of Goodies, The Land of Do-As-You-Please, and The Land of Birthdays, siblings Joe, Beth, and Frannie, along with cousin Rick, climb the Faraway Tree and discover a fresh land waiting at the top each time. Every story is a complete, bite-sized adventure, giving new readers the satisfaction of finishing a whole tale in one sitting while still meeting the same much-loved cast of magical characters. Along the way, the children rescue the accident-prone Saucepan Man, outwit toy soldiers, sample strange bottled medicines, indulge in enchanted treats, and enjoy the chaos of a land where nobody has to behave. Each book is short in length but rich in imagination, with full-color illustrations on almost every page to support developing readers and keep the pace lively. Because the stories can be read in any order, the set is flexible for bedtime reading, classroom libraries, or a child working through them independently at their own pace. Taken together, the collection offers a gentle, funny, and reassuring way to fall in love with the Faraway Tree before moving on to Blyton's full-length novels.
