![]() ![]() ![]() The Faraway Tree series was a favorite of mine as a kid, though I recall one of my childhood best friends dismissing it as ‘twee.’ (She did actually use that word at age ten, which in itself is very twee but however.) Maybe it is a bit twee, but it’s also pretty funny and has wonderful characters with names like ‘Moon-Face’ and ‘The Saucepan Man.’ What’s not to love? The story follows a group of children (one of whom is named Fanny and I wonder if this will be kept for the modern adaptation) who discover a wonderful, nebulous tree in the Enchanted Forest, which is home to various wonderful, colorful characters. Me, climbing totally on board with this new adaptation | Via Giphy Please see my further thoughts on this here. This is great because the Paddington movies are wonderful. Hot off the success of Paddington 2, which has been sitting merrily atop the box office charts in the UK since its release, StudioCanal have announced they will be responsible for bringing Enid Blyton’s The Magic Faraway Tree to the silver screen. ![]()
