Overview

Five Children and It By E. Nesbit "Oh, don't be silly!" said Anthea; "it's not a rat, it's much bigger. And it's not a snake. It's got feet; I saw them; and fur! No--not the spade. You'll hurt it! Dig with your hands." "And let it hurt me instead! That's so likely, isn't it?" said Cyril, seizing a spade. "Oh, don't!" said Anthea. "Squirrel, don't. I--it sounds silly, but it said something. It really and truly did"-- "What?" "It said, 'You let me alone.'"
