Five Children and It
By Edith Nesbit
Usually dispatched within 3 - 5 business days.
£ 3.29
Its eyes were on long horns like a snail''s eyes… it had ears like a bat''s ears, and its tubby body was shaped like a spider''s and covered with thick, soft fur… and it had hands and feet like a monkey''s.‘It’ was the Psammead, the grumpy sand-fairy that could, if in the mood, grant a wish a day. When the five children befriend him they find that each wish granted often has a sting in its tail. Golden guineas are too difficult to spend, wings let them down in a most inconvenient way, and when they wish for Red Indians, the children forget that they can sometimes be a little warlike.Generations of children have come to love the fantasy and the whimsy of the stories in the classic book from the author of The Railway Children.
