While playing in a gravel pit near their new home, five children come across a Psammead, or sand fairy. The sand fairy is compelled to grant the children one wish per day, and since the children ask for such fantastic wishes, they do not turn to stone at sundown as wishes of the past did. Through these wishes, the children have many magical adventures. In this book, the children, Cyril, Anthea, Robert, Jane and the Lamb begin their trilogy of adventures.

Its eyes were on long horns like a snail’s eyes... it had ears like a bat’s ears, and its tubby body was shaped like a spider’s and covered with thick, soft fur... and it had hands and feet like a monkey’s. ’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. Golden guineas are too difficult to spend, wings let them down in a most inconvenient way, and when they wish for Red Indians, the children forget that they can
