The Enchanted Castle (Illustrated Edition)

The Enchanted Castle is a country estate in the West Country seen through the eyes of three children — Gerald, James and Kathleen, who discover it while exploring during the school holidays. The lake, groves and marble statues, with white towers and turrets in the distance, make a fairy-tale setting, and then in the middle of the maze in the rose garden they find a sleeping fairy-tale princess. Edith Nesbit (1858–1924) was the author of world famous books for children — the tales of fantastical adventures, journeys back in time and travel to magical worlds.
