Thoughts
Ah, a classic Enid Blyton boarding school story with grumpy kids, adventures in class, and of course, a midnight feast. The twins approach going to a new school with a terrible attitude and are quickly put right, and I know it’s for kids and is really outdated, but I did enjoy reading about these escapades. The secret dog! The accidental exam cheat! The prompter at the play! Sneaking out to the circus! So good, and everyone gets what’s coming to them which is always fun.
