Magic Faraway Tree

Discover the Enchanted Wood and climb the Faraway Tree with children whose ordinary lives open into extraordinary places. The lands above its branches change, bringing new friends, temptations and dangers each time the travellers return. Enid Blyton's imaginative adventure offers the pleasure of a world with recurring characters and endless possibilities, while exploring curiosity, cooperation and the need to think carefully before accepting a magical invitation.

Age suitability and learning: Primary (6-8), Older children (9-12). The longer narrative suits children ready to sustain attention across a developing story, whether reading independently or sharing it aloud. Following characters and events supports comprehension, vocabulary and reading stamina; discussing motives, settings and choices encourages inference, empathy and imaginative thinking.
