I tried reading this once as a child, maybe about the age of seven and eight, and put it down because I found it very bizarre. I can now see that it's the kind of book which is intended to be read to children by their parents as there are plenty of amusing comments which only adults would understand (e.g. finding the coins in the garden). It's an excellent book, written in the way of many books from that time - each chapter has its own plot, meaning that you can read one chapter every night befo...more

I come to Nesbit quite late in life - she wasn't an author I enjoyed as a child. She's a very modern writer - she's certainly the grandmother of modern fantasy for children with books like Five Children and It. The Bastable stories are ancestors to Judy Blume's Fudge books and The Penderwicks The Penderwicks: A Summer Tale of Four Sisters, Two Rabbits, and a Very Interesting Boy. You can certainly tell that C.S. Lewis was a devotee of her works; The Bastables and Pevensies might as well have lived down the street from one another (and, as The Magician's Nephew begins, Polly and Digory did live at the same time. Treasureseekers is a bit better book than Wouldbegoods but both are sharp as a knife and incredibly funny. Nesbit's characters differ from modern kids in dress and slang, but for all intents and purposes they could easily fit in among today's literary kids (and surpass almost all of them in wit, knowledge, imagination and creative play). The books are essentially humorous episodes - although a few are quite scary. They are NOT politically correct in the least. In the version I read, the children casually use the "n-word" at least twice. They also try to sell sherry to a tee-totaling clergyman and his wife (my favorite story in the bunch), purchase and shoot a real gun, open a roadside bar... There is one chapter in which a tramp holds them hostage in a tower, which is terrifying. You won't find ANY of these kinds on shenanigans going on in modern books written for children; I don't know whether this is a shame or not, but certainly modern kids don't have the opportunity to find trouble like the Bastables. That's the sad thing. The Bastables were bad kids, but they also had hearts of gold. Loyal, courageous, literal, patriotic, loving, well intentioned. At the end of The Wouldbegoods , Mrs. Pettigrew - who they gave no end of trouble to throughout the book, cries when they leave, and you totally understand why. Nesbit is a genius, the first really modern writer for children, and it's this genius that creates these noble scamps who are both horrid and beloved at the same time. Three cheers for the Bastables!(less)

The "Five Children and It" trilogy is among my favorite childhood books, so before rereading them I decided to try this one. I have to say that I didn't enjoy it as much as I expected, probably because it has no magic at all and the characters of the children seem a bit too stereotypical - the eldest sister who acts as mother to her orphaned siblings, the sensitive poet, the brave and chivalrous boys, and so on. All right, it's not the author's fault that she didn't include supernatural elements...more

In an early example, Oswald airily tells us that a confused servant took off with his sister’s silver thimble entirely by mistake:

We think she must have forgotten it was Dora’s and put it in her box by mistake. She was a very forgetful girl. She used to forget what she had spent money on, so that the change was never quite right.

The Bastables were once middle-class, employing various servants, eating and dressing well, until the death of their mother and illness of their father. His business partner took advantage of the situation to take the remaining money and flee to Spain, and the family is now poverty stricken, deserted by almost all of their friends, and hiding from creditors.

The Bastables seem to take this in stride, to the point where a careless reader might misunderstand the family desperation. After all, they still have a house, a small back garden, a servant, and food. But a closer reading shows that their ability to keep the house is severely questioned — creditors plan to seize it. The father is almost always gone, either hiding from creditors or hunting for money.

The servant, Eliza, is shouldering the burdens of housekeeping, cooking, and childcare — none of these a joke in days before appliances, without another adult in the house. Eliza is also a terrible cook, but they cannot afford a replacement.

Dora, the oldest sister, breaks down as she attempts to parent her siblings and mend their clothes. The Bastable father is feeding his family only by dint of buying goods without paying for them — and then hiding when the infuriated butchers and shopkeepers come to call, although the local butcher softens a little when he realises that the Bastable children have resorted to a get-rich/earn money at home scheme, and that the furniture, carpets and clothes are in tatters. The family silver has been sold. (Oswald thinks it’s just getting cleaned.)

And although Oswald stoutly informs us that he’s fine with wearing clothes with holes in them, his constant mention of them strongly suggests otherwise. He is aware that, as the oldest boy, he holds a certain responsibility, but his middle class roots prevent him from taking some jobs, and thus, he and his siblings take on increasingly more desperate schemes to restore the family fortunes.

This is a cute book about a family with 5 children who are suffering the loss of a mother and financial woes of their father. The story is told by one of the children. Young readers can learn some quite valuable lessons while the children in the story try to restore the family fortune all by themselves! Adults enjoy heartfelt chuckles as they read of the innocent encounters the children have with people in their community.

This was the first of Nesbit's successful children's books which began life as a serial and published in book form in 1899. Dedicated to the scholar and journalist Oswald Barron, its dedicatee furnished the name of the narrator who recounts the 'adventures of the Bastable children in search of a fortune' to revive the failing career of their widower father. The children (Dora, Oswald, Dicky, Alice, Noel and Horace Octavius) use the time when their father cannot afford to send them to school to s...more

Children in Nesbit's books give up too easily. They know (as children tend to) when adults are lying to them. or at least holding out. So, as children also do, they tend to make up stories, which often don't even come close to the truth.

Given the kind of books the Bastable children would have read, it might have seemed more obvious to the children to set out to find buried treasure than anything so mundane as a lemonade stand. That's not unusual even now--why else would portable metal detectors...more

The Story of the Treasure Seekers by E. Nesbit

Edith Nesbit is one of my favorite children's writers and this first novel from 1898 is one of three written about the six Bastable children. In this book their widowed father has lost all his money and the children, who are not in school for lack of tuition, seek to find a treasure to restore the family wealth. They are well-read and left on their own much of the day as they develop plans to find a fortune.

The best children's books mix sweet innocence with wickedly funny humor. Nesbit perfected this mix in the Bastable children. The children have lost their mother and their standard of living - but there is no pity or maudlin moments here. When it comes up that they miss their mother it's dealt with in one paragraph where Oswald says, essentially "We missed her and we tried not to think about it and felt better."

Oh, yes, I quite enjoyed Five Children and It and The Phoenix and the Carpet and so on when I was a child; they're magnificent children's books. But listening to the Librivox recording of The Story of the Treasure-Seekers makes it very, very clear that the magnificent Ms. Nesbit had very firmly in mind the parents who would be reading the books aloud at bedtime. One beautiful example is a scene in which an adult abruptly rises from his seat and walks away to stand at the window with his back to the children in his office. The narrator says he believes the man was trying to conceal his emotions. Which is very true; the emotions, however, were not what the narrator thought. But the narrator, and any child reading or listening who has utter faith that all is just as the narrator perceives it, may believe one thing; the beautiful layer of comedy in the moment is reserved for the grown-ups.

Thank goodness we get something; in almost everything else the children are the fortunate ones.

The Bastable children possess an innocence which I'm very much afraid is impossible for even a twelve-year-old today. I've seen comments out there amongst the reviews about "imperialist overtones" and casual racism. Thing is, though, this was first published in 1899, and like it or not the world was a very different place then, and as I read it even what could be considered racist has an innocence that keeps it from being offensive. The children are given to understand that a visitor is an Indian, and – fed on adventure novels – assume Amerind, and ask him about beavers. He's India Indian, though, and has no information on such creatures. I honestly don't see how the children's honest excitement about and sympathy for someone from far away who describes himself as a poor broken-down fellow (which they also take literally) can be translated as racist, especially in 1899, and the one extremely unfortunate exclamation that can be (the same as is found in L.M. Montgomery's A Tangled Web) was, sadly, a much more common epithet a hundred years ago.

These are the sort of fictional children that make me despair over today's kids: imaginative, well-read, well-spoken, thoughtful under the childish self-centeredness, and self-sufficient; they make today's kids (American, at least) look like Neanderthals. They're not perfect little angels – E. Nesbit was never stupid. But they do set a ludicrously high standard.

Dora, the eldest (at 13 or 14?), comes off as a bit of a prig (though this is dealt with in a later chapter in such a way that it made me cry), desperately trying to maintain some moral high ground in a horde of siblings who think it would be absolutely smashing if there were still highwaymen on the heath – or, even better, if they could be highwaymen on the heath. Her objection is that it's "wrong" – as in illegal and people hang for such things, not so much as in the victims of the highwaymen didn't think it was quite so smashing. The again-innocent bloodthirstiness of the kids is remarkable, and just fun.

Oswald, the oldest boy at 12 and (you might guess, or you might not!) the narrator of the story, is very nearly as brave and honourable as he wants to appear, and very straightforward. It's rather lovely to see him reluctantly, realistically doing the right thing throughout the book, proceeding quietly and alone when practical – the older ones all do that, shouldering responsibility and striving to make things right when they go wrong. The fierce affection and loyalty among the siblings is, like their father's poverty and worries, never explicitly stated: it doesn't have to be. It is shown, not told.

The four younger children – Noel and Alice and H.O. and Dickie, ranging down to I believe six years old – are every one expected by their elder siblings to be just as sharp and responsible and willing and able to contribute as Oswald and Dora. Some allowances are made for their extreme youth, but for the most part they are equal partners in the treasure-seeking, receiving an equal share in any profits – though sometimes excused by protective siblings from punishments.

I don't remember E. Nesbit reducing me to tears in the past. This did. And, yes, I laughed out loud. I missed the magic element of some of the other books – but only at first. It didn't take long to realize that most of the magic of E. Nesbit's writing is actually in E. Nesbit's writing.

To that point: "No book is really worth reading at the age of ten which is not equally – and often far more – worth reading at the age of fifty and beyond." ~ C.S. Lewis. I look forward to reading E. Nesbit when I'm fifty, and beyond.(less)

1899 children's book.
Interesting how much moralizing is in this book, and how much the children discuss the moral pros and cons among themselves. Can't imagine that.
Nesbit has a positive attitude to life and to children, but I don't find her storytelling successful.
Certainly children today would not 'get' a whole lot of stuff in the book.
Typical class consciousness here, but that applies to huge numbers of UK writers esp. of that period.

A children's story from the late 1800's. So well written and funny. From a child's point of view. Good for adults and children with a good understanding of Victorian literature. Or not. Actually my brother Don found this title listed under "Books that genius children read". Even if they are just plain old ordinary children, I think they will like the book.

Now I'm worried. What if I can't get my children to read the book? Are they something other than ordinary?

The Story of the Treasure Seekers by E. Nesbit is a classic children's book from years ago. But it had a timeless quality to it and I enjoyed it so much.

Their adventures were both touching and funny and I laughed out loud several times. A great relaxing read.
