she is a famous person and have a very fantastic idea going around her head...
well just imagine...she wrote almost thousands of books~~~~~
and every single of it..is a master piece...
(evendo I didn't read all of them..but still it must have been a wow)
ok...let me introduce her.......drum roll please~~
*drumroll*

that is her..and her signature...her name was..Enid Mary Blyton...she was..was a British children's writer also known as Mary Pollock...One of Blyton's most widely known characters is Noddy, intended for early years readers. (awesome)
~make way for Noody...*hon* *hon*~

However, her main work is the genre of young readers' novels in which children have their own adventures with minimal adult help....

Her work involves children's adventure stories, and fantasy, sometimes involving magic...Her books were and still are enormously popular throughout the Commonwealth and across most of the globe. Her work has been translated into nearly 90 languages and her literary output was of an estimated 800 books over roughly 40 years~!!!

Blyton and her mother did not have a good relationship, and later in life, Blyton claimed to others that her mother was dead and ultimately did not attend either of her parents' funerals...Blyton was a talented pianist, but gave up her musical studies when she trained as a teacher at Ipswich High School....She taught for five years at Bickley, Surbiton and Chessington, writing in her spare time....

she wrote n published so0o0o0o0oooo
many books....i really want to cracked open her head...to see how here brain works...hehehhe

Her first book, Child Whispers, a collection of poems, was published in 1922. On 28 August 1924 Blyton married Major Hugh Alexander Pollock, DSO (1888–1971), editor of the book department in the publishing firm of George Newnes, which published two of her books that year. The couple moved to Bourne End, Buckinghamshire (Peterswood in her books)...Eventually they moved to a house in Beaconsfield, named Green Hedges by Blyton's readers following a competition in Sunny Stories. They had two children: Gillian Mary Baverstock (15 July 1931 – 24 June 2007) and Imogen Mary Smallwood (born 27 October 1935).

R.I.P my sifu~~~

Blyton's husband died in 1967. During the following months, she became increasingly ill. Afflicted by Alzheimer's disease, Blyton was moved into a nursing home three months before her death, she died at the Greenways Nursing Home, London, on 28 November 1968, aged 71 years and was cremated at the Golders Green Crematorium where her ashes remain.

Blyton's home, Green Hedges, was sold in 1971 and demolished in 1973. The area where Green Hedges once stood is now occupied by houses and a street called Blyton Close. An English Heritage blue plaque commemorates Blyton at Hook Road in Chessington, where she lived from 1920-4.Her daughter Imogen has been quoted as saying "The truth is Enid Blyton was arrogant, insecure, pretentious, very skilled at putting difficult or unpleasant things out of her mind, and without a trace of maternal instinct. As a child, I viewed her as a rather strict authority. As an adult I pitied her." Her elder daughter, Gillian, did not hold the same view toward their mother, and Imogen's biography of Blyton contains a foreword by Gillian to the effect that her memories of childhood with Enid Blyton were mainly happy ones.
if you want to find out more of her journey...you can just google (mine was copy paste at wiki..huhuhuh) ..or..buy her biography books... <3 here is one of it... =)
