Nesbit stories in the Psammead Book Series 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 dont realize all the trouble wishes can cause . . the sequel to Five Children and It. From Robert  Anthea  Jane and Cyrils new nursery carpet there falls a mysterious egg which is hatched in the fire to reveal a benevolent  resourceful and ingenious Phoenix who explains that the carpet is possessed of magic qualities. And so begins a series of fantastic and bizarre adventures as the carpet transports the children and the Phoenix to places as diverse as a chilling French castle  a desert island and even the Phoenix Fire Insurance Companys offices  which the Phoenix believes to be a shrine for his followers. At the end of Five Children and It the five children promised not to ask the Psammead for another wish as long as they lived  but expressed a half wish to see it again some time. In this final part to the triology they find it again in a pet shop in Camden Town  and their magic adventures start over again. It leads them to a magic amulet - half of it actually - which they use it to try and find the other half. It takes them back to ancient Egypt and Babylon. The Queen of Babylon visits them in London  bringing all her ancient customs with her - which is awkward. They visit the lost continent of Atlantis. They see Julius Caesar in the flesh  but none of these adventures run smoothly  and if they forget the word of power or lose the amulet  what would happen to them?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67908754210869,"sku":"ByrdShop_0706410513","price":101.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780706410518.jpg?v=1793903983","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/five-children-and-it-9780706410518","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
