Sophy invited us to step into the world of Happy Hills as we learned to create our very own brand-new comic book residents.

During the Book festival Chris talked about outdoor adventures, hidden treasure solving, secret passages and everything else Famous Five. Inspired by Enid Blyton’s classic series, Five and the Forgotten Treasure followed Fran, Tom, Maddy and Gilbert the dog as they revisited an old Famous Five case with the now grown-up Professor George Kirrin. This exciting new story wove the action, adventure and danger of Blyton’s thrilling world into a tale perfect for every generation of readers.
