Harding's Luck is sequel to E. Nesbit's "The House of Arden". It
tells the story of Dickie Harding, a disabled boy, who one day
accidentally discovers an old magic, that allows him to travel into
his own past. There he meets Elfrida and Edred Arden (as told in
"The House of Arden") and together they seek for a long lost
treasure. With the assistance of the magical Mouldiwarp, they
travel back in time to earlier periods of English history,
searching for clues. A great favorite of Nesbit fans; it's a story
of injustice, poverty, deformity, magic, romance, suspense,
sacrifice, and triumph over adversity that comes to its point with
a fateful twist.
Eight madcap tales of unpredictable dragons -- including one made
of ice, another that takes refuge in the General Post Office, and a
fire-breathing monster that flies out of an enchanted book and eats
an entire soccer team! Marvelous adventure and excitement for
make-believers of all ages. 24 illustrations.
