Psammead

Five Children and It, written by E. Nesbit, tells the story of five siblings – Cyril, Anthea, Robert, Jane, and their baby brother, known as the Lamb. During a summer holiday in the English countryside, they discover a sand fairy called a Psammead, which has the ability to grant wishes. The children are excited by the prospect of having their wishes fulfilled but soon learn that each wish only lasts until sunset and often comes with unforeseen consequences. Throughout the book, the children experience a series of adventures and misadventures, such as becoming beautiful, rich, and encountering various historical figures. They realize the complexity of their desires and the importance of being careful what they wish for. Ultimately, they learn valuable lessons about responsibility, the nature of happiness, and the importance of being content with what they have.
