Five Children and it / E. Nesbit 237 p.

While digging a hole to Australia, three British children unearth a sand fairy that grants them their deepest wishes—wishes that last only till sunset and backfire with humorous results, making them realize that they must exercise care in their desires.

Stood the passage of time very, very well.

Plot driven, amusing, feel-good, conversational, whimsical

Readalikes: For those who enjoy the adventure in Lemony Snicket series about the Baudelaire orphans without dark element. Decades book: 1900
