The Story of the Amulet Edith Nesbit Books
This is one of the best books ever written for young people. Edith Nesbitt is so imaginative and her style of writing should be exposed to every kid. I love her long, complex sentences, her rich vocabulary, and her lively voice. The story takes you back into ancient times, but in a very personal way. All five of my kids have loved her books, and especially this one! No childhood would be complete without some Edith Nesbitt!Product details

Love these books
I loved her books when I was a child in the sixties and I love to think that they have been around for over a hundred years and yet they are still wonderful stories that don't feel at all old-fashioned. The world they are set in is certainly different from ours, which adds to their interest, but the writing is immediate and there is nothing mannered or didactic that one might associate with books from Victorian times. A combination of lively, very real children, with sometimes a little magic thrown in and sometimes just the adventures children have when they're not too closely supervised, the books are fast-paced, humorous and adorably wholesome.
Charming and funny, well-written, and holds up remarkably well for modern kids. Trust me, this is worth a read. Also makes GREAT reading aloud material for bedtime or traveling.
Great condition
I ended up buying this series of books for my K2 after we watched the film "Five Children & IT" recently. I have really enjoyed reading all three of these books. The conversion is pretty good. No missing words or strange characters to speak of. Underscores are used before and after words that were probably italicized in the DTB versions.
Although they are "children's literature" the language and the time period make them interesting for any adult who enjoys fantasy or time-period stories.
Nesbit is always wonderful but she does not handle time travel as well as she does her other fantasy. The utopia she envisions is suitable for her turn of the century sort of socialism, but not convincingly viable. How droll that the future mother names her child "Wells", after Nesbit's Fabian friend. HG
