easter + enid blyton

happy belated good friday and happy easter, everyone!!!

i found this site a few days ago containing a complete collection of enid blyton's books which immediately brought me back to my elementary school days. i used to really love reading enid's books, and i had most of them, too; lima sekawan, sapta siaga, pasukan mau tahu, mallory towers, st clare, si badung, seri petualangan, seri rahasia & noddy (of course, they were all in indonesian). i don't know what have become of all my books, though. :(

i tried finding enid's books on amazon, but even though amazon has a few famous five books and the adventure series, but most of what i found are the noddy series... i wonder why enid blyton is not very popular in the u.s?

it seems that european books are a little hard to find in general. i've tried several times to find some of my childhood favorites (tintin, asterix, lucky luke, tanguy & laverdure, astrid lindgren's books and agatha christie), but they're not usually available in bookstores. you'd have to order them from amazon, if amazon has them, that is.
