The Secret Seven Colour Short Stories: An Afternoon With the Secret Seven is a charming addition to Enid Blyton's beloved series. Join siblings Peter and Janet, along with their friends Jack, Barbara, Pam, Colin, and George, as they form The Secret Seven, ready to solve any mystery, any time.

In this delightful tale, Peter is manning the hoopla-stall. However, when Fred offers him an enticing pony ride, he entrusts Scamper the dog to look after things. To his dismay, upon returning, both Scamper and the money are nowhere to be found!

Beyond the widely cherished Secret Seven novels, Enid Blyton penned six short stories featuring the same beloved characters. These stories, compiled in The Secret Seven Short Story Collection and published by Hodder, are also available individually. They are thoughtfully divided into chapters, ideal for newly confident readers, and are vibrantly illustrated in full colour by Tony Ross.
