ISBN10: 1853261246, ISBN13: 9781853261244, [publisher: Wordsworth Editions Ltd, United Kingdom, Herts] Softcover Its eyes were on long horns like a snail's eyes it had ears like a bat's ears, and its tubby body was shaped like a spider's and covered with thick, soft fur and it had hands and feet like a monkey's. It was the Psammead, the grumpy sand-fairy that could, if in the mood, grant a wish a day. When the five children befriend him they find that each wish granted often has a sting in its tail. Golden guineas are too difficult to spend, wings let them down in a most inconvenient way, and when they wish for Red Indians, the children forget that they can sometimes be a little warlike. Generations of children have come to love the fantasy and the whimsy of the stories in the classic book from the author of The Railway Children. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
