Classics to add to your family library. Complete and unabridged!!

 Featured Author: E. Nesbit

These Puffin classics are all wonderful books, and we feel that they will certainly enrich your family library.  This year, we would like to highlight a particular author, Edith Nesbit, whose works are truly a playground for the young imagination.  Ms. Nesbit's stories have an extraordinary ability to transport readers to another time and place! Her delightful style allows the pages of her books to literally jump to life.  These charming tales not only serve to satiate children's imaginations but also to awaken their curiosity about places and events in history such as the lost city of Atlantis or the hanging gardens of ancient Babylon.  Edith Nesbit's refreshing accounts provide a wonderful opportunity for a reader to be both observer and participant throughout these amazing stories!  As the child enjoys the well-written tales and expand their vocabulary they are also being taught some valuable lessons such as kindness, prudence, loyalty and generosity. The tales listed above follow five brothers and sisters living in early 20th century England.  Ms. Nesbit's stories lend themselves as excellent read-alouds for the entire family to enjoy!
