Anne Digby

Anne Digby (born 5 May 1943 in Kingston upon Thames, Surrey) is a prolific British children's writer best known for the Trebizon series published between 1978 and 1994.

[1] Digby attended North London Collegiate School before becoming a magazine journalist, and lived in Paris for a while.

She added six books to Enid Blyton's 1940–52 Naughtiest Girl series, 1999 to 2001 – which publisher Hachette catalogues as Naughtiest Girl, volumes 5 to 10[2] – and created the Three R Detective books for younger readers.

[1] The Encyclopaedia notes that Digby's style becomes "heavily teen mag" in her later books.

[1] Fidra Books has published a collector's edition of Fifth Year Friendships at Trebizon, which has a foreword by Digby, while new mass-market paperback editions of the first ten titles in the Trebizon series were published by Egmont Books in 2016 and 2017.
