(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Gordon Browne & Lewis Baumer. Nesbit's first book for children broke new ground by portraying real, flawed children. The story centers on the six Bastable siblings and their well-meaning attempts to restore the fallen family fortunes. The humor comes from watching their logical thought processes translate into actions that go horribly awry. This edition features cover art by Paul Zelinsky and includes an afterword.
