When Cyril, Anthea, Robert, Jane and their baby brother start
exploring a gravel pit not far from their new countryside home,
they make an unexpected and very curious discovery. The gravel pit
is home to a Psammead, a sand fairy. This ugly creature has eyes
like a snail, ears like a bat and the body of a spider, and is very
grumpy indeed. He grants the children one wish every day, and
though they are excited to have all their desires fulfilled, they
soon realize that having one's wishes come true can have unexpected
consequences... E. Nesbit's much loved children's tale has
enchanted generations of readers, and has been adapted for the
screen numerous times - most notably by the BBC in a hugely popular
1990s series. It remains one of the most cherished children's
classics ever written, and an indispensable part of every young
reader's library.
