Harding's Luck tells the exciting story of brave Dickie Harding, a little disabled boy and his many adventures. One day, Dickie accidentally discovers an old magic that allows him to travel into his own past across five hundred years. There he meets Elfrida and Edred Arden (as told in The House of Arden), and together they seek a long-lost treasure. It's a story of injustice, poverty, deformity, magic, romance, suspense, sacrifice, and eventual triumph over adversity.
The companion volume to The House of Arden, Harding's Luck was written by the popular and prolific English writer and poet Edith Nesbit (1858-1924), who wrote or collaborated on more than sixty books of children's literature under the name E. Nesbit. Timeless treasures include The Story of the Treasure Seekers, The Railway Children, Five Children and It, and The Phoenix and the Carpet. Nesbit is considered one of the first modern authors of children's literature and is credited with helping to move this genre beyond the realm of fantasy and folklore.

Llegaron a una pequeña casa de pan de jengibre. El tejado era de tartas y las ventanas de azúcar transparente.
Comamos de esto,- dijo Hansel, - y tendremos una buena comida. Yo comeré un trozo del tejado, Gretel, y tu tendrás un trozo de la ventana.'
La clásica historia de senderos de migajas de pan, una casa de golosinas y una bruja malvada y ciega, Hansel Y Gretel es uno de los cuentos más famosos publicados por los hermanos Grimm.
Entra en el mundo fantástico del folklor alemán, el cual inspiró la película del mismo nombre, protagonizada por Jeremy Renner y Gemma Edgerton. En esta versión original, no todo es cantos y rizas en el bosque, y lo macabro y tenebroso ya no está escondido.
Una colección de 15 cuentos clásicos infantiles, narrados a voz de Mario Iván Martínez.
Una familia pobre vive en los lindes del bosque gracias a su comercio de leña. En un invierno frío y húmedo muere la madre, dejando al leñador y a sus dos hijos, Hansel y Gretel, tristes y desconsolados. Con el paso de los años, el leñador decide casarse de nuevo: las cosas marchan bien hasta un nuevo invierno duro, en el que la familia está por morir de hambre. La madrastra le propone al leñador abandonar a los niños en el bosque, pues no les queda más que una hogaza de pan para todos.
El leñador accede, sin saber que los niños han escuchado sus planes y que se han preparado con migajas de pan para encontrar el camino de vuelta.
Cuando el leñador y la madrastra los abandonan en el bosque y los niños intentan volver, caen en cuenta de que los animales se han comido las migajas y no saben regresar a casa. Perdidos, encuentran una casita en medio de los árboles con techos de azúcar y ventanas de mazapán: dentro vive una temible bruja que querrá comérselos a la primera oportunidad.
Luego de ser abandonados en el bosque, los hermanos Hansel y Gretel deben arreglárselas para encontrar de nuevo su hogar. Pero lo que descubren, es una casita llena de chocolates, pasteles y caramelos. En lo que aparenta ser el paraíso para los hermanos, ¿qué podría salir mal?
