This beautiful HarperCollins Children' s Classics edition of E. Nesbit' s Five Children and It is the perfect addition to any bookshelf. When Cyril, Anthea, Robert, Jane and their baby brother move to the countryside, they encounter ' It' - a grumpy, strange-looking Sand-fairy known as a Psammead. The Psammead can grant the children one wish every day - but whether they request to be beautiful or rich, to fly or live in a castle, it seems every wish is destined to lead the five children into a great deal of trouble . . . This classic fantasy adventure from the author of The Railway Children is full of magic and mishaps, bringing to life the saying ' be careful what you wish for' . Complete your library with HarperCollins Children' s Classics.
Edith Nesbit is the author of a series of children' s books which have remained firm favourites and bestsellers for decades. One of her most admired abilities as a writer is the way she combines real life situations with elements of magical fantasy, often injected with great humour. Translated and sold throughout the world, Five Children and It is perhaps the most famous of her books to display this magical combination. By the time of her death in 1924, E. Nesbit had published forty-four novels.
