Description

The Bastable siblings return with fresh schemes and treasure-hunting misadventures, humour and heart intact. Nesbit's continuation of childhood resilience, friendship, and magical everyday moments. Spoken as when the next round of plans is still half brilliant and half disaster.

Author

E. Nesbit (1858–1924) reinvented children's literature by letting magic walk into ordinary English life — leftover tea, railway platforms, and wishes that go wrong in the most practical ways. The Railway Children, the Bastable books, and the Psammead adventures taught young readers that wonder need not be solemn. Nesbit wrote as an adult who still remembered how children actually talk: funny, fierce, and rarely pious.
