Book still in a very good used condition. >>> One thing about Whyteleafe, the school The Naughtiest Girl (namely Elizabeth Allen) goes to: it's not a single-sexed school like other boarding schools in other series made by Enid Blyton (except for St. Rollo, but then it's a standalone, not a series). When boys and girls go to the same school, there can be different types of drama. The way the characters interact just makes me grin, as if there are more in there than just care between friends. That's what make stories of Whyteleafe cute. - But now let's talk about the main character first: Elizabeth Allen. E lizabeth is a fortunate, charming girl; but here's what's so interesting about her: Blyton installed her with many flaws (just like she did to many of her main characters). Elizabeth makes mistakes; she easily loses temper; but that's why readers love her. Because she's just like us - not a Mary Sue (that many of us pretend or wish to be). - This semester, Elizabeth's still struggling to shake the title 'The Naughtiest Girl' off her. She's a monitor now, so she must behave even better! But things are not so easy, because there are new students that can make Elizabeth's semester another hell: one of them is Julian, the green-eyed boy who is one of the most fascinating characters boarding school series have ever known. As a young girl I was in love with Julian. How can't one? - Elizabeth and Julian laugh and fight and cry and face their own problems and their own demons, and we follow them trying to make themselves better and each other better. - In one word: lovable.
