I had not read this book for at least thirty years, though I loved it as a child and young teenager. And I very much liked re-reading it now, after re-reading the first in the series about six weeks ago. It stands alone, but is definitely best read after 'The Naughtiest Girl in the School'.
Elizabeth Allen is a likeable girl; she's kind, and has a strong sense of justice. But she's also hot-tempered and impetuous, rarely thinking before she acts. It makes her a believable heroine, and even if some of the incidents are over-dramatic, with solutions too simplistic, they're good stories.
Recommended to children of about seven and upwards.

Second book in the series, along the same lines of the first. Now, Elizabeth is happy in the school and eager to do well, but she'll make enemies and learn lessons. Interesting for being set in a progressive school instead of the more traditional ones in the author's other school series. Perhaps a bit too much didacticism in this one, as the author seeks to teach her young readers how to be selfless, get along with others and be cheerful.
This book ws the first book i ever read of Enid Blyton but ill sertainaly read more i love how the book changes between enemy and friend. A great book to read.
Another term at the least realistic school in the world.
