Review of 'Five Children and It (Puffin Classics - the Essential Collection)' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Another entertaining and literate novel. My grandson (9) and I enjoyed this one as much as we did "The Railway Children". Edith's outstanding use of Victorian English provided a great learning opportunity for both of us. Her droll humor was also most entertaining and enlightening.
