Beschreibung

In "The Psammead Trilogy 'Äì The Magical Adventures of Five Friends," Edith Nesbit weaves a delightful tapestry of imaginative narratives that blend whimsy and moral lessons. Through the enchanting adventures of five children who discover a wish-granting creature known as the Psammead, Nesbit employs a captivating mix of humor and suspense, inviting readers into a world where the ordinary meets the extraordinary. The richly illustrated edition enhances the experience, bringing to life the vivid landscapes and charming characters that have secured the trilogy's place as a beloved classic in children'Äôs literature. Edith Nesbit, an influential figure in early 20th-century literature, was known for her innovative approach to storytelling and her commitment to social issues, which likely informed the themes present in her writing. Her experiences as a socialist and mother of three shaped her understanding of childhood and imagination, making her a pioneer in the genre of children's fantasy literature. Nesbit's unique ability to blend the fantastical with real-world concerns resonates throughout these stories, as they challenge traditional notions of childhood innocence while exploring the complexities of friendship and adventure. This illustrated edition is a must-read for both children and adults alike, as it captures the timeless essence of curiosity and the importance of imagination. Readers are highly encouraged to dive into this magical world where every desire holds consequences, reminding us all of the power and responsibility that comes with our wishes.

    In this spinoff to the New York Times–bestselling Goosebumps series, two siblings rescue their uncle when he mysteriously turns into a Jack-in-the-box. 
     
    Devin and his sister Violet are visiting their Uncle Jack for the summer. He lives in an old house by the seashore. Jack was a sailor and he has collected strange and fascinating items from the sea. Exploring a back room, Devin and Violet discover a locked trunk. A pirate’s chest. The trunk is wrapped in old, heavy chains and locked with a huge rusted lock. But they manage to get it open. They lift the lid slowly-and see that it’s filled with antique jack-in-the-boxes. Huh? One box is hidden under the others, covered in dust. It plays an odd unpleasant song. Up pops a very ugly, mean-looking puppet, an old pirate with a dirty red bandana over his long greasy hair, scars on his cheeks, and a beard, and one eye missing. “Thanks for letting Sailor Jack out!” he rasps, bouncing on his spring. Devin and Violet have a troubling question: Now that their uncle has been turned into a toy, how will they get him back?
