Nesbit’ NEIL GAIMAN ‘My all-time favourite classic children’s author’ JACQUELINE WILSON ‘She speaks to the reader, and it’s almost as though you can hear her voice’ QUENTIN BLAKE ‘This is the story of one of the most far-reaching and influentially naughty things we ever did in our lives. We did not mean to do such a deed. And yet we did do it.’After being banished to the countryside for creating even more mayhem than usual, the Bastable children vow to mend their ways.
