Narration To Books The Story of the Amulet (Five Children #3)

At the end of Five Children and It the five children promised not to ask the Psammead for another wish as long as they lived, but expressed a half wish to see it again some time. They find 'it' again in a pet shop in Camden Town, and their magic adventures start over again. 'It' leads them to a magic amulet - half of it actually - which they use it to try and find the other half. It takes them back to ancient Egypt and Babylon. The Queen of Babylon visits them in London, bringing all her ancient customs with her - which is awkward. They visit the lost continent of Atlantis. They see Julius Caesar in the flesh, but none of these adventures run smoothly, and if they forget the 'word of power' or lose the amulet, what would happen to them?

Judgment Appertaining To Books The Story of the Amulet (Five Children #3)

I think this final book is my favorite in the Psamead trilogy. I can certainly see that Nesbit was an inspiration to C.S. Lewis's creativity.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.Robert, Anthea, Cyril, and Jane are four siblings that have already been in adventures before. While roaming around London one day, they bump across an old 'friend': the magic creature Psammead. The children decide to help the creature escape from the pet shop it has been kept a prisoner, and ask for its help - their mother is ill, and they will do anything to help her get well again. And that's

In this third volume of the series (following Five Children and It and The Phoenix and the Carpet), Nesbit finally succumbs to the temptation to get socialist and preachy. There is a revolt of the workers in Ancient Egypt where the rabble-rouser addressed the rabble with 'Comrades!', a visit to a socialist utopian London of the future where Boris Johnson is mayor Wells, as in 'H. G.' is considered a good boy's name, and some pithy observations from the Queen of Babylon when she magically trips

I just loved this book as a child, and it was a delight to revisit it. It was free for the Kindle, so I snapped it up. It was always my favorite of the trilogy, and I must have read it dozens of times, so whole passages were waiting there in my memory when I encountered them -- like Jane sucking on her paintbrush and commenting that Chinese White tastes sweet: of course it does -- it's full of lead! Don't do that!Ahem. Anyway, as an adult I can see that it's a little heavy on social

I really didn't care for this. I found the children shallow and annoying and the story pointless. I realize that this is the third book in a series, so maybe I would have reacted differently if I had read the previous books, but what a dull read.
