The children were digging in the gravel pit. The spade struck something. “I think it was a rabbit-hole,” said Jane, “there might be baby rabbits.”
“Let’s get it out,” said Cyril. The hole grew larger. Suddenly Robert dropped his spade and knelt down in the sand. “Look!” he cried. “You can see it now—it isn’t a rabbit-hole—it’s a sort of cave. Look!”
They all knelt down and looked. There certainly was something dark—a sort of hairy, furry darkness. Then suddenly this dark something moved and with one spring the Sand-fairy was out of the sand and sitting on the gravel.
It was exactly like a fat spider, or a mole, or a rat—or perhaps more like all three mixed together. It had legs and arms and hands and feet like a monkey’s, and its face was very like a monkey’s too, except that it had ears like a bat’s ears, and its eyes were on long stalks like a snail’s eyes.
“Don’t be frightened,” said Anthea kindly. “We won’t hurt you.”
“I’m not frightened,” said the Sand-fairy. “I’m only angry. You wake me up out of my thousand years’ sleep.”
“Who are you ” asked Robert.
“I’m a Psammead,” it said angrily. “A sand-fairy. And I can give you anything you wish for—one wish a day, and the wish lasts till sunset.”
“How perfectly lovely!” said Jane.
“Don’t interrupt,” said the Sand-fairy. “I must have my sleep out. I’ve been asleep since long before you were born, and I want to go on sleeping till long after you’re dead.”
“Please,” said Anthea politely, “couldn’t you give us just one wish now ”
The Psammead blew itself out and said, “Very well. What do you want ”
The children whispered together. Then Anthea said, “We wish we were all as beautiful as the day.”
The Sand-fairy blew itself out still more, then suddenly collapsed. “Done!” it said. “And now go away and don’t bother me.”
They looked at each other. Nothing seemed changed. Then Jane cried, “Oh! Your faces—your clothes—everything!”
They were indeed beautiful their faces perfect, their clothes changed into splendid silks and velvets. Excited and happy, they ran home to show Martha. But when she opened the door, she screamed, “Get away with you!” and slammed it in their faces.
