review
What did you like most about Famous Five: 1?
I liked it the most when they found the gold.
Who was your favorite character and why?
George was my favourite character because she owned the island.
What does Jan Francis bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
I think if you get stuck on a word when you are reading the book you would have to sound it out but in an audio book they just say it.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes I begged my mother so I could finish it because it was so exciting.
Any additional comments?
I think this is the best book I have ever heard (so far). I am about to listen to the next Famous Five.

Good Old Enid Blyton
Listening with the grandkids and they are loving it as much as I did 50 years ago.
My childhood hero, George is still just as inspiring as I remember.
I was curious whether it would seem intolerably sexist like the faraway tree stores do now but this seems to allow gender equality in the characters.
Mild criticism of the narater, that the little kids voices can be screechy and annoying.

REPORT!!!! ( I just couldn’t think of a better short title so that is that )
Loved it. I have one problem though. How come it says that Timothy is black and white, but in all the drawings on the front of the different books, he is a super yellowish-orange golden retriever?

A lovely family story
The narrator does a splendid job with the characters by giving each a unique voice.
Although some of the children’s antics are quite old fashioned it is understandable given this book was written in 1942. It can offer great opportunities for discussion should one wish to engage this way

Not Just for Kids
This is a great story to get acquainted with the Famous Five series.
Insightful characterisations, believable storyline, skilfully performed by Jan Francis.
Don't be put off by the one voice doing all of the characters. More professional
and enjoyable to listen to than the use of various child voices used in the dramatisations.
May take a few minutes to get used to the voices, but once you do, you're on your way.

Timmy was a large brown mongrel! Startled it was changed to a black and white dog........
Enjoyable and nostalgic but again so surprised wonderful Tim was so misdescribed! Also so many references to jeans which really jars as they all wore shorts, even Anne when she wasn't wearing a dress or skirt. Such a pity as so few words are changed from the original text, even those far more outdated. Just wish it was all left as it was written. Apart from these cringeworthy changes, really enjoyed it. But...... Timmy was a large brown mongrel dog!!!!

I read some of the famous five books when I was young, so decided to buy this to introduce my children to something that I had enjoyed. It went down better than I expected, the story really hasn’t dated much at all, and both of my kids loved it and are now looking forward to book 2 on our next long car journey.

Racist, sexist, misogynistic and just awful.
This story teaches children to hate those who are different to them. This is not a story that our children should learn from. Racist, sexist and misogynistic.
