Enid Blyton's books are beloved the world over, and The Famous Five have been the perennial favourite of her fans. Now, in this new Enid Blyton for Grown-Ups, Julian, George, Dick, Anne, and Timmy head Down Under for some relaxing holiday fun. But will it be the adventure they had hoped for?

Setting up camp in Bondi, they soon meet the Sydney Six, a couple of guitar-strumming Kiwis, and a rogue South African, finding themselves in the thick of Sydney's real estate perils and the attempts of their omnipresent cousin Rupert Kirrin to buy up the local media.

But when the sun, surf, and bluebottles have their revenge and things don't quite go to plan, it's time to head for the country for a spot of sheep-shearing and quad-bike riding. Will the country be kinder to them, or will their close calls with the Australian wildlife have them heading back to the city before you can say decaff soy latte?
