Review

Before I start I would just like to warn you that my opinions on this book may be caused by nostalgia, so I encourage you to read it for yourself to form your own opinions. Now that that is out of the way, I have to tell you that I thoroughly enjoyed this book, which is a follow up book to E.Nesbit's Five Children and It books, written in the early 1910's. There have been many others who have written books adapted from the originals, however, this one, written by Kate Saunders, is my new favorite of these,as, in my opinion,as in my opinion it gives a realistic conclusion to the question of how the titular children would grow up (well, as realistic as you can be with a sand fairy involved), it also stays with the style of E.Nesbit, which, as a fan of her books since I was 7, I appreciated. Please, please read this book, you won't regret it
