Praised by J.K. Rowling, Jacqueline Wilson and many others, The Story of the Treasure Seekers is the first book in the Bastable trilogy. Alma Junior edition is beautifully illustrated by Peter Bailey and contains extra material for young readers.
Dora, Oswald, Dicky, Alice, Noel and Horace Octavius (“H.O.”) Bastable are desperate to help their widowed father to restore the family’s fortunes after his business fails. Their moneymaking schemes, from digging for treasure in their South-London garden to becoming highwaymen on Blackheath, mainly lead to a good deal of trouble, until one adventure promises to change everything…
I love E. Nesbit – I think she is great and I identify with the way that she writes. Her children are very real children and she was quite a groundbreaker in her day. -- J.K. Rowling
