Enid Blyton
These are more Kiddies books but did anyone else love her books?
I really liked The Magic Faraway Tree and The Famous Five! |

I loved the famous five, the ring-a-ding mysteries (with barney and that monkey), and the Adventure series with Jack, and Kiki the bird.

I used to love Enid Blyton - the ones you've mentioned, and the Secret Seven too. I have a great book she wrote about Christmas where four children ask their parents to explain all the traditions to them, which I read every year
