Một phần lớn những kỷ niệm thời thơ ấu của tôi khá thay đổi và mờ nhạt, nơi tôi hầu như không nhớ lại tên và khuôn mặt của giáo viên mẫu giáo hay bạn học của tôi. Nhưng điều duy nhất vẫn còn ở với tôi từ thời kỳ đó là những câu chuyện của Enid Blyton. Tôi có thể tự hào nói rằng tôi lớn lên với các nhân vật của Blyton, những người đã đi cùng tôi từ những năm tuổi vị thành niên vào những năm học tiểu học của tôi vì những câu chuyện của cô có những mức độ khó khăn khác nhau cho một nhóm độc giả. Đối với bản thân mình, tác giả này đã mở ra tâm trí ấn tượng của tôi với những thế giới khác nhau, những thế giới huyền diệu và cũng khác biệt về mặt văn hóa. Ví dụ, trường nội trú không phải là lựa chọn phổ biến ở Singapore bởi vì đối với một hòn đảo nhỏ như chúng ta, trường tiểu học của tôi chỉ cách nhà 15 phút đi bộ. Tuy nhiên, thông qua loạt Malory Towers, tôi biết nhiều hơn về cách những đứa trẻ khác sống ở các khu vực khác trên thế giới.
