Enid Blyton Update

Yahoo! News UK: "A previously unknown novel by British children's writer Enid Blyton has been discovered, according to a charity which bought a collection of the bestselling author's manuscripts at auction last September.

'Mr. Tumpy's Caravan' is a story of around 200 typed pages which was initially believed to be a version of 'Mr. Tumpy and His Caravan,' a picture book made up of newspaper comic strips, said Kathryn Row of the Seven Stories children's book gallery.

But the charity's archivist looked in more detail and called in an authority on Blyton.

'They (the experts) are fairly confident it's an undiscovered piece of work,' Row said."
