Five Children and It by E. Nesbit (unabridged)
Librivox Dramatic. Intro/Cast "00" moved to ch 12.
Finding a Psammead (sand-fairy) to grant any wish your heart desires seems like the beginning of endless delights, but as the children soon discover, being beautiful, wealthy and popular can have surprising pitfalls! When it comes to wishing they had wings, lived in a besieged castle or to fight Red Indians in the English countryside, the results of their wishes lead to hilarious narrow escapes and (usually) being sent to bed.
