Description

The location is prime for the adventures the children run into. It’s perfect for open imagination and active little minds to develop plots in each novel. But the island it’s not the only location that present adventurous opportunities to the children. The majority of the homes the children visit within the series happen to be very old and historical dwellings, that feature secret passages that the children use to their wonder. The Fast Five delve into the iconic adventures of active children of the era, taking their dog Timmy with them everywhere they go. Timmy becomes as much of a developed character as the rest if the four children are.

Timmy is the incarnation of the phrase “Old Faithful” when it comes to a dog. He’s very loyal and friendly. Timmy loves to play with the children and is most affectionate towards his owner Georgina. While Julian serves as the older protector of the Famous Five, Timmy says as more of a physical guard for the children on their adventures. The inception of the Famous Five was born out of the mind of Enid Blyton, a British author and creator of a series of books about the Famous Five. For decades, the Famous Five have come alive in the hearts and minds of children everywhere beginning in 1942 when the first novel was written. The cottage is serenely place on Kirrin Island, which is owned by none other then George’s family near the bay. When it comes to organizing and planning adventures and even preparing lunches for the children, Anne is the go-to person. She’s very neat regardless of where the children happen to be camping. While in many instances the adventures take place in caves, Anne happens to be claustrophobic; this of course, was insinuated in the Smugglers Top book. TimmyGeorgina is the owner of Timmy, the dog that often accompanies them on their adventures. She loves her dog very much, and is very possessive and protective over him. Georgina prefers that everyone know that Timmy is her dog, rather than just another member of the group. In many instances, the author of the series Enid Blyton confesses that this character represents herself when she was a child. Anne

Georgina is a classic tomboy. She is the iconic character that represents any girl that grows up in a rural area, among boys as her cousins. Although she bears a beautiful name, Georgina prefers that everyone call her George. She sports short hair and always wears boys’ clothing, much to her content, this appearance often gets her mistaken for a boy. There are some occasions where characters in the book insult Timmy, much to Georgina’s anger. Although Timmy is a loyal and a staple part of the series, Georgina is not actually allowed to have a dog. Therefore, Georgina keeps the dog in the care of a fisher boy. While they may be welded together as inseparable characters in the series, each have their own unique qualities that make them interesting in their own right. Julian

Georgina’s parents Quentin and Fanny are often mentioned in the series, as they are the guardians of the children during their adventures. Quentin, her father has a rather explosive temper which Georgina inherited. She’s a stubborn child and very headstrong however she makes up for it with her loyalty that never falters when it comes to adventures with her mates.
