Stories for younger children Enid Blyton’s writing career began with poetry, gradually moving into short stories, mainly published in magazines, whilst she continued the day job as a teacher of young children. It is, therefore, no surprise that her first stories were tales of fairies and fantasy that would be appreciated by her young charges. However, one of her first full length books, published in 1924, was an account of the zoo and its inhabitants, who became models for some of her later fictional creatures. In this way, Blyton constantly drew on earlier ideas and developed them in later stories. Ancient Chinese Artefacts by Vincent McCarthy   ‘ An offering table with foods. Ming dynasty. £195.
