Edith Nesbit wrote more than 40 books for children, several of which have been adapted many times for film, including Five Children and It and The Railway Children. She is best known for her collections and re-tellings of classics such as Stories from Shakespeare for Young Readers, also available from Dover.
From the author of The Railway Children and Five Children and It comes this tale of six siblings and their adventures in Victorian London. The Bastable children are determined to restore their impoverished family's fortune, and each chapter of this hilarious book finds them busily attempting another get-rich-quick scheme: digging for treasure, becoming detectives and highway robbers, selling wine, and earnestly chasing other comic ventures.
