Award-winning children鈥檚 author Jacqueline Wilson discusses her new book Four Children and It, a tribute to E. Nesbit鈥檚 Edwardian book Five Children and It. In Wilson鈥檚 book the twenty-first century children meet Nesbit鈥檚 character the Psammead - a grumpy, sand-dwelling creature with the power to grant wishes. Speaking to Woman鈥檚 Hour presenter Jenni Murray, Wilson says she is liberating her characters from the parental supervision which is often a feature of current children鈥檚 literature.
