This series is the one that introduced me to Enid Blyton’s books and it remains my favourite of all till date.
Elizabeth is a spoilt brat who is sent to Whyteleafe so that she can learn and be disciplined. Even there she comes to be known as the naughtiest girl in school. But slowly she blossoms into a wonderful girl (who can be bratty if she wants to be) with slight push from her teachers and a lot of help from her friends.
The series led me to romanticize the life at a boarding school (which I later experienced for myself) and taught me a lot of life lessons. I particularly loved how the girls formed a group to make decisions and solve any problems on their own.
There’s a lot of lessons to be learnt from these pages and I consider this series to be one of the must reads for every child (boy or girl) while growing up.

Iseng baca nemu di tumpukan lama. Ceritanya ringan banget, bisa dibaca sekali duduk, tapi seru dan memuaskan. Menyenangkan sekali. Setting-nya di sekolah berasrama Inggris pula, jadi pengen nulis di Whitsbury rpf, kan :3 #eh

It's more a 4.75 rating :) I really loved it, so cute !! I loved all the mystery in this book, it was really good for a children/middle school book :) Elizabeth is just awesome and i love Julian as well :D
Such a fun little book <3
The only thing that i didn't really enjoy was the conclusion for the mystery, but that's ok :)
Awesome series, i TOTALLY recommend :P

So this is the seventh book in the Naughtiest Girl series, and this time it practically picks up from where the last book ended. Elizabeth and Joan are waiting for the children who didn't stay to camp to come back to the school for the start of a new term. On arrival he children learn that they are going to performing a summer play. Elizabeth desperately wants the starring role so she practises making sure she's well prepared. During all this we are getting to know a character that has been mentioned before but hasn't been developed Daniel, who Elizabeth and her friend Julien think is a little odd as he's very quiet and doesn't really mix with the other children. Anyway Elizabeth doesn't seem to be able to keep out of trouble as the blame when some strawberries get uprooted in the garden as an old school blazer button is found which belonged to her. She also gets the blame for cheeking the teacher and gets stripped of her part in the play and falls out with Julien in the process, and also for setting off the fire alarm in the middle of the night. She then saves the day when a real fire breaks out in Daniel's room and also finds out what has been causing all the strange things that have been happening. This wasn't one of my favourites but it was alright I'm slowly getting through the series.

A nostalgic tale that takes me back to my childhood.
