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! Having a Sand-fairy for a pet means having one wish granted each day. But the children don’t realize all the trouble wishes can cause. This is a timeless classic with an introduction by Quentin Blake, award-winning illustrator and first-ever Children’s Laureate (1999-2001). 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.
