Kirrin Island was based on Corfe Castle on the Isle of Purbeck, Dorset. The real Corfe Castle, made from Purbeck Stone quarried on the coast, sits on a chalky hill overlooking a picturesque town and on misty days, when cloud covers the town, the castle looks like an island. You can have a go at recreating the island!

Most libraries have copies of The Famous Five books but, if you'd like to buy one or a couple, the books are all shown below. I'd recommend reading these aloud to 5-8-year-olds. Independent readers aged from about 8-9-years-old would enjoy them on their own.

Noddy, friend of Big Ears, citizen of Toy Town, has turned 50. Banned by librarians in the 50's for being insufficient literary, Enid Blyton's top money spinner then became politically incorrect. Only a few years ago, Noddy was labelled a homosexual misogynist and a racist, and cast into political exile.
Noddy is a little wooden boy who lives in his own little House-for-One in Toyland.
Blyton's books are still enormously popular, and have been translated into 90 languages. As of June 2018, Blyton is in the 4th place for the most translated author.

The difference is that in Secret Seven, maximum numbers of mysteries they solve are in luck. Even though The Secret Seven is said as one of the best series of adventure too, The Five - Find Outers has adventure (adventures are not very much in this series) much better than The Secret Seven.
