5.0 out of 5 stars Stories which stand the test of time 7 Feb 2007
Format:Paperback
I first read the St Clare's series when I was about 9 years old. Now I'm 33 and am re-reading them for about the fourth time and they're still as enjoyable and wonderful as ever.

The Twins at St Clare's is the first book in a collection of six (excluding the two extra stories written by Pamela Cox) and introduces us to Pat and Isobel O'Sullivan, who are new to the school after undertaking their previous schooling at snobby boarding school Redroofs. When the twins arrive at St Clare's they are stuck up and determined to dislike everything about their new school but bit by bit St Clare's weaves its magic spell over them and they settle in, make new friends and actually start to enjoy themselves.

This is a school story filled with fun, tricks and midnight feasts. I can't tell you how special these stories are to me. As well as enjoying the tale they always evoke a feeling of nostalgia as I remember those old and well loved characters (Janet, Hilary, Mamzelle...) A fabulous read which has stood the test of time. Enid Blyton would have been proud to learn that readers are still enjoying her books sixty years after they were written.

5.0 out of 5 stars TWINS AT ST CLARES - WOW! 20 Feb 2004
Format:Hardcover
there are several phrases to describe this: Brilliant, fantastic, funny, amusing, hard-to-put-down, fabulous, fabtastitc, wonderful and amazing. That was just a few.

This book is one of the St clare's stories and I must say a brilliant one. It is the first in the series and "The funniest school series by enid blyton"

Pat(ricia) and Isabelle O'sullivan are identical twins -they want to go to a really expensive school but their parents decide to send them to St Clares instead. So the two decide to do as worst as possible.
Read the book to find out more!
