Edith Nesbit (1858–1924), who published her works under the moniker E. Nesbit, is widely regarded as a pioneering figure in the field of children's literature. Her narratives often intertwined magical elements with the everyday, a style that influenced generations of future writers, including C.S. Lewis and J.K. Rowling.
