Growing up as a child, Enid Blyton books were all I read, I cannot begin to explain how much I love reading and how often I do it. For years I tried finding her books and couldn't, it seems the stores in the U.S don't carry her books. But finally I was able to find them because I want all of my neices to be able to experience the joy I had once I opened one of her books. I'm in the process of purchasing as many as I can. My child will also be a fan of Enid. She allows children to be children. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

It's been an age and then some since I read this book but I have only pleasant memories of the story. Enid Blyton's fantasies were always fascinating and entertaining for me and the Wishing Chair stories no less so than any of the others. Enid Blyton weaves a story that transports you to a fun and fanciful place where the adventures are exciting and the happy endings always come. Perfect for pre-teens and even teens who still like their adventure tales less fraught with danger and nightmare fodder than the average Harry Potter installment.

I bought this book for my seven years old niece and she liked it very much. I used to read enid blyton's books when I was a little girl and I loved them. I don't know why are they so hard to find today.

My eight year old daughter couldn't put this book down. She loved it so much she read the entire book in one sitting. Enid Blyton is one of the greatest children's authors in the world. She has a way with fantasy that sparks the imagination of the reader, old or young. Her correct use of grammar and syntax is refreshing. She never dumbs down her language. Blyton's books should be required reading in every schoolroom in America.
