The Story of the Amulet is about Cyril, Anthea, Robert, and Jane, the same four children who are featured in Five Children and It (the fifth child was their baby brother) and The Phoenix and the Carpet.

One of a series of children's books written in the 1900's by Nesbit, focusing on four siblings and a rather extraordinary creature called a Psammead. During the war, Cyril, Robert, Anthea, and Jane are left in the care of their kindly old nurse while their mother is away recuperating from illness and their father is a war correspondent.

The siblings resolve to make the best of a bad situation, but on their first day exploring the twisted streets of London they happen upon their old friend, the sand-fairy Psammead (a cantankerous creature like a dilapidated monkey with bat ears and snail eyes).

They rescue him from the hands of a pet shop owner, and in return the Psammead tells them a tale of a magic amulet that, when put together, will grant the bearer their hearts' desire. The children resolve to put the pieces of the amulet back together, but in order to do that they must go on an amazing adventure through time itself.

It is funny and adventurous and truly fabulous for reading aloud. For any of you who love a good time travel story, this one is for you!

About the Author: Edith Nesbit (married name Edith Bland; 15 August 1858 - 4 May 1924) was an English author and poet; she published her books for children under the name of E. Nesbit.

She wrote or collaborated on more than 60 books of fiction for children.

Nesbit published approximately 40 books for children, including novels, collections of stories and picture books. Collaborating with others, she published almost as many more.

According to her biographer Julia Briggs, Nesbit was "the first modern writer for children" "(Nesbit) helped to reverse the great tradition of children's literature inaugurated by Lewis Carroll, George MacDonald and Kenneth Grahame, in turning away from their secondary worlds to the tough truths to be won from encounters with things-as-they-are, previously the province of adult novels." Briggs also credits Nesbit with having invented the children's adventure story. Noël Coward was a great admirer of hers and, in a letter to an early biographer Noel Streatfeild, wrote "she had an economy of phrase, and an unparalleled talent for evoking hot summer days in the English countryside."
