- Book Synopsis
- I expect you know how boring it can be to stay indoors on rainy days. None of the 5 children meant to set the nursery carpet on fire that wet day. They only wanted to test out their fireworks. The new carpet when it arrives comes with something odd wrapped inside - an enormous glowing egg, and with it the chance for a whole new set of adventures.
- About The Author
- Edith Nesbit (1858-1924) is perhaps most famous for writing The Railway Children and Five Children and It, but she was extremely prolific and wrote or collaborated on more than sixty children's books. Nesbit is today recognised as one of the most influential and innovative children's writers that ever lived, and is cited as an inspiration by many contemporary authors, including J. K. Rowling, Neil Gaiman, Jacqueline Wilson, Kate Saunders and Frank Cottrell-Boyce. Even C. S. Lewis acknowledged the debt his Narnia series owed to her work-particularly the Bastable and Psammead trilogies.
