Five go off in a Caravan

All of Enid Blyton’s books are great, and Jan Francis is amazing too. All together, this (audio)book is top-notch!

Hope Jan reads the rest of the series!!

My 6 yr old son and I love listening to the 3 Famous Five books on Audible - we've already listened to each one twice! ;) Really hoping Audible will have the rest of the series up at some point.

Transported back to my childhood and glad to be.

Would you listen to Famous Five: Five Go Off In A Caravan again? Why?

As a boy I read everything that Enid Blyton wrote. It was a rite of passage for people of my generation. As you grew a little older you went from the Secret Seven books to The Five Finder Outers series to reading The Famous Five.

What did you like best about this story?

The joy of a long forgotten time and the sort of children's stories I grew up with, having the kind of adventures which I always hoped that someday I and my friends would have.

Have you listened to any of Jan Francis’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This is the first Jan Francis performances I have heard, and I would happily listen to others, she does a great job.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes

Any additional comments?

Would love to be able to obtain other titles in this series, so far I can find only one other, please add more.

Five Go Off in a Caravan : Review

Enid Blyton’s stories have delighted children for decades. Story lines are exciting and easy to follow for kids 7-12 yrs.

Jan Francis does a fantastic job of bringing each character to life. Even a credible voice for Tim - the dog & Pongo - the chimpanzee.

This Famous Five series was a favorite with my sons & is now delighting the grandkids. Many more adventures on AUDIBLE to enjoy.
