Five Children and It

It was the Psammead, the grumpy sand-fairy that could, if in the mood, grant a wish a day. When the five children befriend him they find that each wish granted often has a sting in its tail.

Era Psammead, zana morocanosa de nisip care putea, daca avea chef, sa-si indeplineasca o dorinta pe zi. Cand cei cinci copii se imprietenesc cu el, descopera ca fiecare dorinta indeplinita are adesea o intepatura in coada.
