I think this was meant to go up at the top.

But, Blyton was picked up even at the time as being racist, so I don't think we can blame then society. Her sexism and classism are period attitudes though, still wrong, but understandable. God, the first FF book begins with George's family saying they are now so poor they are down to their last seaside villa, private island, dinghy, and only one servant. I mean, horrors of want there.

LOL, I know, reading these books was like stepping into another world. Enid Blyton, like Agatha Cristy and H.P Lovecraft, just to name a couple more. Reading them now, you can see how bad their racism, classism, and sexism were. The stories are still immensely entertaining and still hold up over the years even if the attitudes don't.
