Description

The last time Cyril, Anthea, Robert and Jane saw the Psammead, they promised not to ask it any further wishes. All they hoped for was to see it again, one more time. And this moment has come. On their way to St James’s Park, the children find the Psammead captive in a cage at a shop that sells all sorts of merchandise. They manage to rescue their old friend and they all embark together in a new adventure by means of an amulet —half of it— that the children buy at the shop, following the Psammead’s advice. In order to find the other half of this wish-granting amulet, the children and the Psammead go on incredible trips through time and place, visiting ancient civilizations and meeting famous historical figures. However, getting hold of the missing part is not as easy as they’d thought. Going back and forth in time, dealing with countless hazards, will they finally make it and get back home safe? The Psammead Trilogy, written at the beginning of the twentieth century by Edith Nesbit, is a classic of all times that you shouldn’t miss. The story begins with Five Children and It, and continues with The Phoenix and the Carpet and The Story of the Amulet. Read them all and meet this amazing storyteller who inspired other big fantasy writers such as C.S. Lewis and J.K. Rowling. By the end of the book, find after reading activities to keep on having a great time with the story and your imagination.
