VOTE
- Adventures of five siblings (same in number as the Bastable Children series and the Five Children or Psammead series, but three different familes); narrated by one of the boys, namely Clifford (same as Oswald Bastable narrates the Bastable Children series)
- Amazon review: "... except for a single, incongruous episode where the eldest boy solves a real burglary by dreaming that he is a worm, the book lacks the beautifully imaginative fantasy sequences that are a hallmark of Edith Nesbit's creative works ..." -- Molly Grue (reviewer)
