These stories are classics; they are fantastic to read aloud and a must-have for every child's bookshelf. This is a beautiful edition, with original illustrations from Diana Stanley and this hardback edition has real handling pleasure; the paper is suitably tough and the colours of the cover have reproduced well. This would be a fantastic Christmas present for a keen 7-10 year old reader.
Another re-issued classic with small people is [[Mistress Masham's Repose by T H White]]. A more recent book involving mysterious small people living in a country house is [[The Thirteen Treasures by Michelle Harrison]] {{amazontext|amazon=1444005812}} {{waterstonestext|waterstones=8701421}}. You might also enjoy [[The Secret of the Blue Glass by Tomiko Inui and Ginny Tapley Takemori (translator)]].
