The BFG is no ordinary bone-crunching giant. He is far too nice and jumbly. It's lucky for Sophie that he is. Had she been carried off in the middle of the night by the Bloodbottler, or any of the other giants - rather than the BFG - she would have soon become breakfast. When Sophie hears that the giants are flush-bunking off to England to swollomp a few nice little chiddlers, she decides she must stop them once and for all. And the BFG is going to help her!

Wonderful Story Beautifully Told!
If you could sum up Five Go Adventuring Again in three words, what would they be?
Charming adventure story for kids! A real treasure of a story that rightfully belongs in the repertoire of every child's youth.
Who was your favorite character and why?
George, a lovely young girl who is not afraid to be herself and Timmy her dog whose fidelity and charm are timeless.
What about Jan Francis’s performance did you like?
The performance was excellent. Classy, crisp and yet filled with heartfelt emotion.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Get ready for the adventure of your life!
Any additional comments?
PLEASE record all of the books in this series. It is heartbreaking that there are only two audiobooks available of the 21 Famous Five books written by Enid Blyton.

Please don't alter the original text!
The Five didn't wear jeans! Do wish text wasn't changed, really doesn't fit with the story. Please keep the original text as written. Each changed word jars horribly. Still enjoyable otherwise and takes one back to originally reading in the 1940's

Another gem of a book
Jan Francis is quite literally a phenomenon!
Her elocution is flawless, dictation impeccable and her warm affectionate tone is perfectly matched to Enid’s work.
Which whilst dated in parts (it was written in the 1940’s, so not exactly surprising!) still contains a compelling & engaging narrative.
Some of the characters could also do with more polish but again. I suspect that’s a era issue rather than a flaw per se.
Get this book! You will love it!

Another classic story from Enid.
Bit of a slow burner, and most of the action happens in the last third of the book. Although I listen for the nostalgic effect. loved being transported to the 1940s. Having a good experience revisit the famous five series
