E. Nesbit





This delightful novel begins when a family of five children moves from London to the English countryside. While playing in a gravel pit soon after the move, they discover an ancient and rather grumpy sand-fairy known as the Psammead, who agrees to grant one wish of theirs per day. The children’s wishes send them on adventure after adventure, but rarely turn out as expected. (Summary by Kara) (5 hr 38 min)

LOVED the book, but I didn't much like the reading. The difference in readers was distracting, and some of them were hard to hear and/or understand.I would give the story itself 5 stars, but the way it was read brought down the overall rating.

I absolutely love this book! The difference in readers was kind of distracting, and one chapter was read rather quietly, but other than that I fully recommend this book.
a fantastic story

A lovely story recommended for all ages. The alternate readers made the story seem fragmented, but all were more than capable.





A sweet story full of adventure. Typical gender roles and racial bias common for.the time the book was written.
I didn't like that the wishes were silly
