Four Children And It By Jacqueline Wilson

Synopsis:
Rosalind has been sent to live with her dad and stepmother for the summer while her mother goes to sumer school and is not best pleased. Rosalind is a bookish girl, her brother Robbie is similar, lost in a world of playing with his toy animals. But at their dad's house they have to cope with their new stepsister Samantha, always appropriately known as Smash, and life with a dad who always seems to be disappointed in them. However, there is compensation in the form of Maudy, their new half sister, an adorable toddler. On a day out having a picnic in the local woods they find a strange creature in the sand and Rosalind recognises it, it's the sand fairy or passamead from one of her books, a creature that can grant wishes. 



My thoughts:


I am a huge Jacqueline Wilson fan, but I have to say she really did disappoint me. I didn't like that it was an different interpretation of Five Children And It by E. Nesbit. It was extremely boring and the only part I did enjoy is that there dreams were coming true! If Jacqueline Wilson wrote a part two about how their dreams helped them I think I would have enjoy it more.
