I used to love Enid Blyton's mystery books, like the Famous Five, the Five Find-Outers and the Secret Seven. Some of Blyton's views are outdated, though.

I've read the first Famous Five and heard of Secret Seven, but not the Five Find-Outers. Thanks!

I used to read Agatha Christie and Conan Doyle at quite a young age. Their books aren't really meant to be for kids, though.

Some Tintin books are mysteries.
