Five Children And IT Book And Tape Pack

Spending a holiday in Kent, five children, Anthea and Jane, Cyril and Robert (and sometimes baby Lamb) stumble on a marvellous creature hidden in a gravel pit. It is called a Psammead, or Sand-fairy. This hairy, ancient creature is able to grant the children one wish each day. But the children have an unfortunate knack of wishing for things that are no use to them – or even get them into trouble. Magic, as the children discover, can be as awkward as it is enticing.
