The Story of the Treasure Seekers, E-bok

The Bastable siblings—Dora, Oswald, Dicky, Alice, Noël, and Horace—embark on a series of amusing and often chaotic quests to restore their family s fallen fortunes. Determined to help their widowed father, the children devise elaborate schemes to find treasure and earn money, from digging for buried gold to setting up a newspaper. However, their well-meaning efforts frequently end in comedic disaster, as they encounter a string of mishaps and setbacks along the way. Set against the backdrop of Edwardian London, Edith Nesbit s classic tale captures the timeless joys and struggles of childhood, as seen through the eyes of the resourceful and imaginative Bastable children. EDITH NESBIT [1858-1924] was an English author and poet, best known for her children s and young adult books. She modernised the children s book genre by introducing serious themes that had previously been considered more suitable for adults, and has inspired many later writers, including C. S. Lewis and J. K. Rowling.
