First published in 1902, "Five Children and It" is a childrens novel by English writer and poet E. Nesbit. The story follows the five children Cyril, Anthea, Robert, Jane, and the "Lamb" and their adventures resulting from the discovery of a sandfairy that has the ability to grant wishes. A charming tale of youth and innocence, "Five Children and It" would make for perfect bedtime reading and is not to be missed by fans and collectors of Nesbits magical childrens literature. Originally published in "Strand Magazine", the tales were made into a fulllength novel trilogy also including "The Phoenix and the Carpet" (1904)" and "The Story of the Amulet" (1906). Edith Nesbit (1858 1924) was a prolific writer of childrens literature, publishing more than 60 such books under the name E. Nesbit. She was also a political activist and cofounded the Fabian Society, which had a significant influence on the Labour Party and British politics in general. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, highquality edition complete with a speciallycommissioned new biography of the author.
