Famous Five Art Nostalgia – Character Portrait: Anne [Annie]
Introductory post
Masterpost
Character profile (adapted from Wikipedia):
Anne is the youngest in the group, and generally takes care of the domestic duties during the Five's various camping holidays. As the youngest (ten years old in the first book of the series), she is more likely than the others to be frightened, and does not really enjoy the adventures as much as her brothers and her cousin. She sometimes lets her tongue run away with her, but ultimately she is as brave and resourceful as the others. She likes doing the domestic things such as planning, organising and preparing meals, and keeping where they are staying clean and tidy, be it a cave, house, tent or caravan. In Smuggler's Top it is suggested she is claustrophobic, as she is frightened of enclosed spaces, which remind her of bad dreams. But the adventures invariably lead the Five into tunnels, down wells, and into dungeons and other enclosed spaces, demonstrating how brave she really is.
Anne keeps the same general characterisation in Claude Voilier’s continuation series ‘Les Cinq’, although she occasionally insists that her brothers and cousin take part in household-y chores.

Nous, les amoureux Eurovision 1961 par Jean-Claude Pascal
Nous les a-mou-reux
On vou-drait nous sé-pa-rer
On vou-drait nous em-pê-cher d'être heu-reux
Nous les a-mou-reux
Il pa-raît que c'est l'en-fer
Qui nous guette ou bien le fer
Et le feu
C'est vrai, les im-bé-ciles et les mé-chants
Nous font du mal nous jouent des tours
Pour-tant rien n'est plus é-vi-dent
Que l'a-mour
Nous les a-mou-reux
Nous ne pou-vons rien contre eux
Ils sont mille et l'on est deux
