Has anyone pointed out the irony yet in middle aged white Tories fuming about people getting angry about the slightest thing?"I think it's even more interesting that it's implied this whole dreadful banning is a result of modern evil wokeness. But many people have been aware Blyton's work had problems for many years. From wiki: "Blyton's work became increasingly controversial among literary critics, teachers and parents from the 1950s onwards, because of the alleged unchallenging nature of her writing and the themes of her books, particularly the Noddy series. Some libraries and schools banned her works, which the BBC had refused to broadcast from the 1930s until the 1950s, because they were perceived to lack literary merit. Her books have been criticised as being elitist, sexist, racist, xenophobic and at odds with the more progressive environment emerging in post-Second World War Britain, but they have continued to be best-sellers since her death in 1968.

"Oddly enough, you can still get loads of Blyton books at my local library. Very strange since they've supposedly been so comprehensively banned. I bet you can't. And I also bet you haven't specifically checked at your local library in the two hours since I made this thread. Poor form to make stuff up. I just looked on my Essex Library Services app. Should I care to reserve an Enid book, there were about 35 web pages of them in the catalog... In the whole of Essex? Say 100 books for a million people? Ridiculous. You initially said it wasn't possible. Now you say that there's not enough, that's just a funding issue surely? Which government is it that has caused local councils to have to strip back all of their services (libraries included)? But, on checking there did not seem to be a wait time on the first few I looked at. So probably enough then? Which is more to the point, most kids today would not want to read these books. Kids minds have been poisoned against the good old fashioned roistering boistering adventures. Saying some bits of Essex have the books... Great. Many bits don't. Unless you can drive a few miles hunting them out. " That is really as daft as saying they don't watch those great Errol Flynn films anymore... It's a central service, it covers all Essex. It saves every library having to duplicate their stock of books. It's called efficiency. You only have to wait a day or so... | |||

"English heritage are going to review all their blue plaques including for Enid Blyton due to links with our colonial past. Ginger beer and buns, Noddy and Big Ears, condemned by the wokes. " Good Riddance to the bigoted views of the past  | |||
