5.0 out of 5 stars every young girls dream, 13 Jan 2000
This review is from: Upper Fourth at Malory Towers (Paperback)
As a young girl I read and reread theses books. Now as a mother, aunt and godmother I have introduced these delightful books to so many other young girls. Each has found the same enjoyment that I once found. Indeed I even read them again 20 years later, and found myself caucht up in excellent childhood memories.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yet Another Enid Blyton Classic., 1 Jun 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Upper Fourth at Malory Towers (Paperback)
Upper fouth at malory towers is the fourth book in the malory towers series. Enid Blyton has managed to write another book that keeps all it's readers hooked.

In upper fourth at Malory Towers, Darelle has been made head of the upper fourth and she finds that being head girl isn't as easy as she thought. Gwendoline has become friends with a new girl,the honarable Clarrissa Carter. But will this friendship last? On top of all this there is the tension of exams and all the girls are stressed. It's also summer term so there's time for swimming,tennis and forbiden midnight feasts!

Upper fouth at Malory Towers is an enjoyable story that you'll want to read over and over again!

4.0 out of 5 stars I like it..., 13 Mar 2007
This review is from: Upper Fourth at Malory Towers (Paperback)
...because it shows the other side of Darrell's character.

Of course, she is popular, good at games, doing fine in School Cert. and so on - but when she is made head-girl, she hasn't got an easy time. The other girls - though they like Darrell - don't obey willingly, but tease her, especially Alicia who is jealous of each head-girl in turn. And when Darrell loses her temper (she is caught shaking a cheeky first-former), she has to resign as head-girl - a terrible blow to her. That's rather strong, I think - after all, the older girls are allowed to bully and to punish the younger ones, so why shouldn't they shake them a little as well...?!

I like seeing Bill and Clarissa becoming friends - an unlikely match because Bill is a blunt tomboy and Clarissa meek and shy.

I disliked Mavis for thinking "that the small, bespectacled Clarissa was quite well paired off with Gwendoline"! Does Clarissa deserve a "friend" like Gwen because she is small and bespectacled?!

By the way, it is the last time that Darrell's best friend Sally has got a good part - in the following book you hardly notice anything of Sally. But in Upper Fourth, she does a good job calming down Darrell and Connie, and Darrell admires her for always knowing the right thing to say. Unfortunately, she is not in the music-room when Darrell actually loses her temper - she is made head-girl after Darrell has resigned.

Of course, baddie Gwendoline has malicious plans and is found out and punished... I think her stupidity is exaggerated - she is pretending to have a weak heart and obviously, she doesn't stop to think that her parents will take her to a doctor who, of course, finds out that she is pretending.

Then there is a very interesting plot about sibling rivalry between the twins Connie and Ruth - one of Blyton's best ideas, I think. Connie is continually domineering her shy sister, even answering for her when someone speaks to Ruth - and Ruth doesn't seem to mind. But Darrell realizes that she DOES mind, very much...
