The Explorer
From his seat in the tiny aeroplane, Fred watches as the mysteries of the Amazon jungle pass by below him. He has always dreamed of becoming an explorer, of making history and of reading his name amongst the lists of great discoveries. If only he could land and look about him.
As the plane crashes into the canopy, Fred is suddenly left without a choice. He and the three other children may be alive, but the jungle is a vast, untamed place. With no hope of rescue, the chance of getting home feels impossibly small.
Except, it seems, someone has been there before them...
Five Children and IT
"Five Children and It" by E. Nesbit is a children's novel written during the early 20th century. The story centers around five siblings—Cyril, Anthea, Robert, Jane, and the Baby, known as Lamb—who discover a magical creature called the Psammead, or Sand-fairy, that can grant them wishes.
Their adventures begin when they move to the countryside, where the children, seeking excitement, inadvertently awaken the fairy and make wishes that lead to unexpected consequences.
