Description

"The Story of the Amulet" by E. Nesbit is a novel written in 1906. Four children discover a magical Egyptian amulet that serves as a portal through time, but they possess only half of it. Guided by the Psammead, a wish-granting sand-fairy from their previous adventures, they journey to ancient civilizations—Babylon, Egypt, Atlantis, and beyond—searching for the missing piece that will reunite their separated family. Their travels blend historical detail with fantasy, culminating in an unexpected glimpse of a utopian future. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
