Anticipating The Phoenix and the Carpet

To be honest The Phoenix and the Carpet is the only book on our reading list that I have not ever heard of before. This gives me a sense of excitement because I can go into it with a complete open mind unlike the other two books we have read so far. The fews things I have learned from just buying the book and getting ready to read it is its 1900's time period and the author, Nesbit, is English. From flipping through the pages i can tell that the authors English background influences the language used. I also believe imagination will be a huge part of The Phoenix and the Carpet just by the illustration on the cover. I am looking forward to the adventures this book will take me on.
