Edith Nesbit was inspired by her own five children to write this enchanting novel skillfully told, and its warm and funny portrayal of a magical childhood has ensured its presence in print ever since. Four children -- Robert, Anthea, Jane, and Cyril (the fifth is their infant brother known as Lamb) -- are playing at a sand pit when they stumble on a Psammead: an ancient sand fairy that will grant a wish a day, which lasts only as long as the sun is visible. Over the succeeding days, the kids learn how many ways that wishes can backfire on them -- they wish for money they can't get anyone to accept, beauty that makes them unrecognizable to their family and servants, wings that leave them stranded on a rooftop, a castle under very real siege by a knightly army -- and how to choose well and avoid having to lie.
