About the Author
Edith Nesbit was a mischievous child who grew into an unconventional adult. Alongside her husband, Hubert Bland, she was one of the founding members of the socialist Fabian Society. Their home became a hub for both socialist and literary circles of the time. Nesbit turned to children's writing later in life, with her first book The Treasure Seekers published in 1899. She is also well-known for her other famous works like Five Children and It and The Railway Children, both of which remain beloved today.
