I thought this book was excellent and I really liked how elaborate it was, connecting different parts of the book together.

I really liked this book. My favourite bit was when they went into the past and met Anthea and Jane and Cyril and the Lamb and Robert. I would love to find a Psammead. I think that i would also wish for wings and to fly.

My favourite person in the story is Rosalind because she is very kind and adventurous. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys reading about travelling in time.

For me, my favourite character was called Rosilind and I found it quite intresting as there was a little animal called a psammead that could grant 1 wish per day. I would 100% reccomend it to someone else.

My favourite characeter was Maudie as she was cute and funny and could always bribe the parents into letting them go to the woods. It was great fun but youre gonna have to read the book to find out what it is.

I thought this book was imaginative and peculiar because I never knew the Psammead could grant wishes until the sunset rises. I was quite startled when Smash decided to make a wish that she wanted to fly because they were flying steadily and Smash was caught and Robbie saved her by kicking the man on the legs.When it was their last day on Oxshott woods I was puzzled when Rosalind wrote R.I.P on the Psammead's pit because they were leaving. I really liked Rosalind because she always gave her siblings the chance to wish to the Psammead. I would recommend this book to someone else because it really brings them to the fact that if the Psammead existed then what would you wish for?

My favourite character would have to be Rosalind because she loves reading and so do I. Also I like the wish she made. I would recommend this to anyone who loves a heart warming book and for anyone child or adult. I also like how in the book there is much more information than the movie. Definitely one of my favourites!!!!! It’s a HAVE TO READ BOOK!!!!!!

I love this book. It is an equivalent to Five children and It by E. Nesbit. It s about 4 children, Rosalind, Smash, Robbie and Maudie. One day, when they go to Oxshott woods all together, they find a furry creature in the sand called a Psammead. He is in Rosalind's favourite book, Five children and It. The Psammead grants wishes. My favourite character is Rosalind. I recommend it.

It is a fantasy book about a sand fairy and my favourite character is Rosiland. I would highly recommend it.
Lady Peaches Birdbath 29.08.2021

Great adventure, fantasy, filled with humor book. This is probably on of my favourite Jacqueline Wilson books! My favourite wish was the one where this all get famous and have pets, fancy clothes, and there own concert, TV show, or book signing! I think my favourite character has to be Maudie!
