Knight's Castle by Edward Eager
An American classic that shows how having your wishes come true isn't always as good as you expect. Four children are whisked away by a magical toy soldier to a land of chivalry and knighthood, Robin Hood and Ivanhoe, but keep muddling up the course of history. It covers artwork by children's laureate, Quentin Blake. It features wonderfully funny relationships between the four children. A well-loved US classic is now again available in the UK. It contains black and white illustrations.
Eager, Edward: - Edward Eager (1911-1964) worked primarily as a playwright and lyricist. It wasn't until 1951, while searching for books to read to his young son, Fritz, that he began writing children's stories. His classic Tales of Magic series started with the best-selling Half Magic, published in 1954. In each of his books he carefully acknowledges his indebtedness to E. Nesbit, whom he considered the best children's writer of all time--so that any child who likes my books and doesn't know hers may be led back to the master of us all.
