The Story of the Treasure Seekers: Complete and Unabridged by E. Nesbit

4.0

The Bastable children are simply enchanting. Our narrator is witty and charming. These children go through a lot, lesson wise and life wise. They learn, they grow, they make mistakes, they repent, they love each other, they laugh, and make friends with the adults around them. They navigate the ups but mostly the downs of their poverty and absent parents, hence the various methods of treasure seeking. Every adventure has a subsequent lesson. Through trials and errors, exploration and discovery; they understand adult topics in an imaginative context. A great children book even for adults.
