I continue to enjoy this juvenile mystery series, despite the paper-thin plots and formulaic prose, and particularly relish the Find-Outers' hilarious conflicts with old "Clear Orf," the nickname given to Mr. Goon. As mentioned in previous reviews, Blyton has created engaging, well-developed characters in Fatty and Bets, although I still feel that Larry, Daisy and Pip are underutilized. All in all, this was another enjoyable contribution to my education in all things Blyton, and an inducement to continue with this series. ( )
