The Magic Faraway Tree - Enid Blyton
May 13, 2008“I always wanted to slide down Moon-Face’s slippery dip” was what a friend said to me one day. I didn’t know what to make of it. I had no idea what she was talking about and it sounded a bit sexy. Then the light bulb flicked on: The Magic Faraway Tree. And with that, I totally agreed. Seriously. Who wouldn’t?
It was a love affair that started many many moons ago. I was first introduced to Jo, Bessie and Fanny (heh) at a time when fairy tales were exciting, where you would dream of going up to Party Land with friends from the Faraway Tree, and it was definitely before some stupid prat from school asked if I knew what a fanny was.
Oh. Those were the days.
