About this deal

Tube Travel: Moon Face has a slide- known as the slippery-slip- all the way from his house at the top to the bottom of the Faraway Tree which runs in a spiral down the middle of the tree to the bottom. For anyone who still doesn't know what this is I can tell you that it's an enormous tree which houses many little people of fairy-extraction inside its wide trunk and it reaches a terribly long way up into the sky.

Yes it's a bit young for me but I couldn't believe that after all these years that there was a forth book that my parents have never told me about so now at 42 I got to read it and a most enjoyable trip into my childhood it was too.Jo has been changed to Joe, the more common spelling for males, and Bessie is now Beth, the former name having fallen out of use as a nickname for Elizabeth. In 2023, we will publish a second new adventure set in Enid Blyton’s Magic Faraway Tree world by Jacqueline Wilson: The Magic Faraway Tree: A Christmas Adventure, also illustrated by Mark Beech. Gender-Equal Ensemble: In the second book there are two boys, Jo and their cousin Dick, and the two girls, Bessie and Fanny. Now this is not to be confused with the "Roundabout Land" which was discovered in earlier days because the Land of Roundabouts and Swings is a very exciting place to visit but pandemonium reigns as the children and Moon-Face partake of a roundabout-ride. Berserk Button: The Angry Pixie hates it when people look in his window when they're climbing up the Faraway Tree.

Using its greenery and rural areas, Blyton uses it as the backdrop, as she really brings it to life through the use of magic and wonder. There are some truly wonderful lands which pass over the Faraway Tree and the Land of Wishes is one. Plans to adapt it for the big-screen, though, are currently underway, as the director Sam Mendes has acquired the rights through his production company ‘Neal Street Productions’, with the intention of creating a major live-action film of the novels. This marriage ended in divorce, and Blyton remarried in 1943, to surgeon Kenneth Fraser Darrell Waters. Also everyone from the Land of Tempers; it's said that if you lose your temper there, then you're forced to live there for the rest of your life (which is the reason the Angry Pixie never went up there himself).

Sometimes, he cannot understand what his friends are saying because he is partially deaf, which is further aggravated by all the noise from the pans and kettles which he carries all the time.

This time set around the tree itself, it manages to build upon the initial premise whilst focusing on where the tree leads to. The books themselves also underwent a “language update” in 2011, to make them more relatable for a new generation of readers. Taking the British countryside once again, it manages to bring it rural backdrop to life with it magical sense of childhood innocence. Almost working into the narrative as a character in of itself it comes to life, as its fully realized by Blyton. In the wood is the Faraway Tree — a huge tree inhabited by fairy-folk and laden with fruit of all kinds from acorns to lemons.What a shock for them but Jo manages to dry them off a little with his handkerchief although he might need to take it out again methinks because a little further up poor Robin gets soaked with some dirty washing water that someone rather carelessly tips down from somewhere up in the canopy. This appears to be no problem at all because all that's needed is to find the address of the rose and honeysuckle-clad cottage where Jo and his two sisters reside and then pay a visit. Review by Terry Gustafson Brief Summary by Robert Houghton: Two children, Robin and Joy read a book of exciting stories about Jo, Bessie and Fanny and the wonderful Faraway Tree and determine to go and visit the children from the book and share in their adventures. This becomes an Brick Joke later when we're introduced to Saucepan's mother, who is just as deaf as he is without any pots. He is the owner of the slippery-slip, a slide which starts in the middle of his house which lets you slide down to the bottom of the Faraway Tree instead of climbing down.

The main characters are Jo, Bessie and Fanny (updated in recent revisions to Joe, Beth and Frannie), who are three siblings. The Faraway Tree is a series of three novels (and one picture-strip book) by British children's author Enid Blyton.Unfortunately this would have meant more expense, especially in the era when it was first produced, so it's up to the little boys and girls who possess a copy to do what has already been done many times before and that's to brighten the panels themselves with crayons, felt-tips or other colouring-in items that can be found in the nursery. The five children have all sorts of exciting adventures together, including being captured by the Enchanter Red-Cloak in the Land of Castles, a birthday treat for Joy in the Land of Wishes, and a delicious visit to the Land of Cakes!
