The original story by classic British author, E Nesbit, now with a new cover by Nick Sharratt to accompany Four Children and It, the bestselling sequel by Jacqueline Wilson, author of Hetty Feather and Tracy Beaker. When Cyril, Anthea, Robert, Jane and their baby brother go digging in the gravel pit, the last thing they expect to find is a Psammead - an ancient Sand-fairy!

Author Biography
Edith Nesbit (1858-1924) began writing stories for children after a popular children's magazine of the time approached her to write pieces about her childhood. The result was a series of bestselling children's books that have remained firm favourites, including The Railway Children, The Story of the Treasure Seekers and The Phoenix and the Carpet.
