The fifth of the six Barney mysteries - Barney, former circus boy, having found his father at the end of the Rub-a-dub mystery, can now invite his friends Roger, Diana and their orphaned cousin Snubby to his grandmother's country cottage for some winter fun. However Rat-a-tat house provides more than just tobogganing and skating, once again the four friends are plunged into another mystery. As with the other titles in the series there's an emphasis on sibling banter, games, fun and food and the actual mystery only starts well into the book. Looney (Snubby's spaniel) and Miranda (Barney's monkey) reprise their roles for comic relief and we have another "amusingly" named servant in Mrs Tickle - another Blyton cliche. Whilst there is some of Blyton's gender stereotyping at least the boys also have chores and pitch in to help run the house when they are snowbound. We are now into the 1950s and the denouement involves Barney's father and the police arriving by helicopter! A fun addition to the series. ( ) ¿Quién llama a la puerta en medio de la noche?

Barney, Roger, Diane and Snubby love solving mysteries, with the help of Loony the spaniel and Miranda the monkey. A cosy old house surrounded by snow-covered hills seems a perfect place to spend the winter holidays, but the peace is disturbed by unexplained noises. Who could have knocked at the door in the middle of the night, and what is the noise that Snubby hears coming from the kitchen? AUTHOR: Enid Mary Blyton (11August 1897-28 November 1968) was a British children's writer known as both Enid Blyton and Mary Pollock. She was one of the most successful children's storytellers of the twentieth century. She is noted for numerous series of books based on recurring characters and designed for different age groups. Her books have enjoyed popular success in many parts of the world, and have sold over 600 million copies. Blyton is the fifth most translated author worldwide: over 3544 translations of her books were available in 2007 according to UNESCO's Index Translationum she overtook Lenin to get the fifth place and is behind Shakespeare. One of Blyton's most widely known characters is Noddy, intended for early years readers. However, her main forte is the young readers' novels, where children ride out their own adventures with minimal adult help. In this genre, particularly popular series include the Famous Five (consisting of 21 novels, 1942-1963, based on four children and their dog), the Five Find-Outers and Dog, (15 novels, 1943-1961, where five children regularly outwit the local police) as well as the Secret Seven (15 novels, 1949-1963, a society of seven children who solve various mysteries). Her work involves children's adventure stories, and fantasy, sometimes involving magic. Her books were and still are enormously popular in Britain, Malta, India, Pakistan, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Singapore, and Australia; as translations in the former Yugoslavia, Japan; as adaptations in Arabic; and across most of the globe. Her work has been translated into nearly 90 languages. * No library descriptions found. |
