Enid Blyton's Faraway Tree series will continue with a new author

A beloved children's author is making a comeback — sort of.

The Bookseller reports that Jacqueline Wilson will bring back Enid Blyton's Faraway Tree world in the first addition to the series in seventy-five years.

The Magic Faraway Tree: A New Adventure will come out May 26, at least in the United Kingdom.

Wilson is an accomplished children's author on her own; among her hundred-plus books are the beloved Hetty Feather and Tracy Beaker series.

And, as the Guardian's Alison Flood notes, some of those are successful retellings of other authors' stories.
