Five Children and It

Summary

Considered by Time Magazine to be one of the best fantasy books of all time, Edith Nesbit's Five Children and It follows a tribe of children on their magical adventures during a summer in the English countryside. When a strange, furry creature appears in front of the children and offers a wish a day, the children take advantage of the creature's abilities and discover that their wishes have many unforeseen - and often quite funny - consequences. As the children learn valuable lessons about thinking ahead and responsibility, the story of their summer with It has remained a timeless classic and stayed with readers and listeners for generations.
