A review by templecat2
The Enchanted Castle and Five Children and It by E. Nesbit, Sanford Schwartz, H.R. Millar

I read this book on the recommendation of a relative after he loved Catherynne M. Valente's "The Girl who Circumnavigated Fairyland" and then pushed this book and its two sequels into my hands. It was pleasant enough and the writing was charming and the resemblance between the two books was noted. It's also racist as heck in the second to last chapter, and ultimately it's a book I appreciate more for inspiring other authors than it's own merits, due to having first read it as an adult.
