I've seen them from £11-£140,depending on what year they were printed, as far as I can tell there were many copies with the original name.

Even my children too have been encouraged by me to read Blyton. I am in search of 'The Three Golliwogs' and am unable to lay my hand on one. Could anyone tell me where I could get one for myself? I know that the name is now changed, but I would prefer the older version... if not ,,, the new version would do.

I stumbled on your blog again when I was searching for some Blyton-related information, and realised you had replied to the comment I posted six months ago. Wish I could be automatically notified via email when something like this happens! Or perhaps I should subscribe to the RSS feed... I haven't been able to find a link to the "Mein Kampf of Buttered Scones", but Tilottama describes having located the author (Achal Prabhala) in her blog. See link: http://tilotamma.blogspot.com She's posted Prabhala's "Trouble in Toyland" there, if you'd like to read it. I did, and though I'm not *critical* of Blyton, I feel the author does have a point. A good many of them, in fact. -Hari in Bombay Hi again, and guess what?

Couldn't listen to it though... I'm hoping I'll have access to a copy someday soon!
