Thoughts

It’s been a while since I read the first Secret Seven book, and although I always preferred the Famous Five, I thought I’d get back into it as a bit of a palatte cleanser. I do think seven is too many kids to keep track of, particularly as that is plus a dog rather than the dog being one of the gang. But this is an interesting mystery, a robbery takes place and the gang investigate, there’s a circus and stilts play a bit part in it. Just old school fun.
