Book 32 - The Story of the Treasure Seekers

The Story of the Treasure Seekers by Nesbit is a delightful children's book. The four Bastable children live with their widowed father and one servant in their very run down home. The adventures begin when the children decide one day that they need more money and each is tasked with coming up with a way of obtaining it. Then the adventures begin. They dig for treasure, write poetry to be published, try holding the neighbor for ransom, and other highly imaginative and elaborate plans. An excellent read aloud for ages 7 and up. My 9 year old and I enjoyed the children's antics very much.
