There are plenty of further reading choices in our [[Top Ten Classics of Children's Literature]], but for something a little different, take a look at [[The Pirates' Treasure (Tumtum and Nutmeg) by Emily Bearn]]. Theme-wise there's little in common with ''Wishing For Tomorrow'', but it has a similar old fashioned sensibility which warms the heart. Slightly older readers will love [[The Penderwicks on Gardam Street by Jeanne Birdsall]].
