About this listen

 Welcome to Malory Towers, where there's more to life than lessons!

In book 1 of Enid Blyton's best-loved boarding school series, Darrell Rivers is thrilled to start her first term at boarding school. She soon makes friends - and mischief! Another new girl, Gwendoline, is beginning to get on everyone's nerves. Will Darrell be able to keep her fiery temper under control?

Now a 5* stage production and coming to TV on CBBC soon!

Between 1946 and 1951, Enid Blyton wrote six novels set at Malory Towers. Book 1 was first published in 1946. This recording is based on the classic text.

A time before the Internet, mobile phones and social media. A lovely paced reading of a book I loved as a child that always made me wish my parents would send me to boarding school!

A gorgeous trip down memory lane!

This book took me back thirty-something years ago when I have first read this book translate into my own language. I was in primary school and it was the first book I was reading except tales of course. Due to blindness, I found it in audio form in the school I was studying. There was never written in braille form form. After some years the book was lost or destroyed and there was not the original. So, when I rediscovered it I was excited. I consider it an excellent book that keeps the interest of the reader. Sorry for my errors but I usually read and almost never write in English.
