E. Nesbit's classic story of how Gerald, Cathy and Jimmy find an enchanted garden and awake a princess from a hundred-year sleep, only to have her immediately made invisible by a magic ring. Her rescue is difficult, funny and sometimes frightening.

Did you enjoy Peter Pan, The Secret Garden, a Little Princess, or Winnie the pooh? If no, skip this book. If yes, pick this up.
This is a wonderful children's book. It follows 4 children who find a magic ring. It was written in the early 1900s and will be difficult for modern children to follow. Not impossible, but it will be a bit of a challenge. There are British phrases and the language is very posh. But underneath it all is still the joys of childhood and a fun summer at a large estate.
Another endearing children???s fantasy by a woman who obviously knows what children like. You can???t go wrong with Edith Nesbit and most of her books are available free in the public domain.
