OverviewRosalind and Robbie don't want to spend the summer stuck in their dad's new house with irritating Smash and her glamorous mum. Dad's biggest wish is for everyone to get along. So when he suggests a picnic in nearby Oxshott woods, the children grudgingly agree. That afternoon, in a golden sandpit, Rosalind makes a wish of her own and something extraordinary happens. It just might change their summer from weeks of rows and bickering into the best holiday these four children have ever had.... A funny and heartwarming story of four children who discover an extraordinary way to make wishes come true,Four Children and It is inspired by E. Nesbit's classic, Five Children and It. Readers always ask who inspired me to be a writer. Well, I adored E. Nesbit's books as a child-and I liked her lifestyle too. She liked Liberty clothes, silver jewelry, and buns for tea, and so do I! My favorite E. Nesbit story isFive Children and It-and this is my modern day tribute to her fantastic story. -Jacqueline Wilson Full Product DetailsAuthor: Jacqueline Wilson , Jacqueline WilsonPublisher: Bolinda Audio Imprint: Bolinda Audio Edition: Unabridged Dimensions: Width: 17.80cm , Height: 3.20cm , Length: 15.90cm Weight: 0.249kg ISBN: 9781486249800ISBN 10: 1486249809 Publication Date: 23 June 2015 Recommended Age: From 8 to 12 years Audience: Children/juvenile , Children / Juvenile Format: Audio Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.

Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationJacqueline Wilson was born in Bath in 1945, but spent most of her childhood in Kingston-on-Thames. She always wanted to be a writer and wrote her first novel when she was nine, filling in countless Woolworths' exercise books as she grew up. As a teenager she started work for a magazine publishing company and then went on to work as a journalist on Jackie magazine (which she was told was named after her!) before turning to writing novels full-time. One of Jacqueline's most successful and enduring creations has been the famous Tracy Beaker, who first appeared in 1991 in The Story of Tracy Beaker. This was also the first of her books to be illustrated by Nick Sharratt. Since then Jacqueline has been on countless awards shortlists and has gone on to win many awards.
