Este volumen recopila nueve cuentos que la autora escribió entre 1887 y 1910. Si bien Nesbit es más conocida por sus obras de corte infantil, a lo largo de su vida también escribió una gran cantidad de relatos fantasmagóricos y sobrenaturales en los que plasmaba aspectos de su propia vida relacionados con las frustraciones, el miedo y sus deseos. Estos nueve cuentos no solo nos permiten ser testigos de la prosa de Nesbit en un campo que no es el infantil, sino que también suponen una ventana a su alma.

Es un Psammead, una antigua hada de arena que tiene el poder de conceder a los niños un deseo por día. «¡ Eso es un sueño hecho realidad !», pensaron los niños. Pero deberán tener mucho cuidado con lo que desean : ya sea teniendo alas, tesoros o belleza, las cosas pueden no ir tan bien como uno quisiera….
