Summary
Meet Julian, Dick, Anne, George and Timothy. Together they are The Famous Five.
'There was something else out on the sea by the rocks - something dark that seemed to lurch out of the waves...What could it be?'
Julian, Dick and Anne are spending the holidays with their tomboy cousin George and her dog, Timothy. One day, George takes them to explore nearby Kirrin Island, with its rocky little coast and old ruined castle on the top.
Over on the island, they make a thrilling discovery, which leads them deep into the dungeons of Kirrin Castle on a dangerous adventure. Who - and what - will they find there?

True gem, The Famous Five
I adored the Famous Five books as a child. Now being able to listen to them on audible, is a true delight. So enjoyable.

Love this children’s series
Found the authors pronunciation of Polzeath grating at the beginning but other than that it was a good narration of a great children’s story.

Kids loved it
But OMG the anachronistic gender stereotypes gave us some interesting talking points. Phrases like "almost as good as a boy" crop up a lot. I now understand what 'internalised misogyny' means.

I read the Famous Five and Secret Seven books as a child. Being able to rediscover the adventures now via audiobook is amazing.
