...child was those written by Enid Blyton, a well known ,yet perhaps old fashioned in her writing, author of many great childrens books – many of which are now being remade to suit a more modern audience of children. Included in Blyton’s writings were the well loved ‘Faraway Tree’ books, full of magic, fantasy and strange and wonderful creatures to capture the hearts and imagination of children all over. My Enid Blyton books were passed down to me from ...
...books you will know that Enid Blyton writes as from her time and order in society with many lines such as ‘Goodness Gracious’, ‘Gosh’ and ‘I say’ with all the stereotypical old fashioned ways of girls do the cooking and cleaning and boys do the hunting and are ‘above’ the girls.

shrek movie review

Advantages: Good price
Disadvantages: Takes to long to get you into the film

With jokes of a farting nature and some jokes with double entembre's which may be interpretated in a sexual nature. Sherk subdues many of the characters as what is excepted of each charachter is changed. This adds to the reason why this is such a great movie. It is an adaptation of the book by william steig. The movie provides a different but original ...
