Look insideFive Children and It
The last thing Cyril, Anthea, Robert, Jane and their baby brother expect to find while digging in the sand is a Psammead — an ancient Sand-fairy! The Sand-fairy lives in the gravel pits where purple and yellow wildflowers grow. It is furry and fat with hands like a monkey’s – and it has the power to grant a wish every day. Sounds great! But the five don’t yet realise how much trouble wishes can cause when they come true…
This enchanting classic is now paired with a brand new introduction by Quentin Blake. It also includes a behind-the-scenes journey, author profile and activities.

I think E. Nesbit must have been a genious! Her books are amazing, and this one is a favorite of mine. It’s fun to read and really funny.

Not my cup of tea. Wasn’t very exciting or interesting. All in all, one of the most boring books I’ve ever read.
