The phoenix and the carpet

Nesbit, E. (Edith), 1858-19242017
Large Print
When Cyril, Anthea, Robert and Jane's bright idea of testing their fireworks in the nursery grate results in cross parents and a burnt carpet, the children think that's the end of it. But when the new carpet arrives and is unrolled, a mysterious object falls out - a peculiar stone egg - which, when it topples into the fire, glows and cracks open... It's surprising enough to have a phoenix hatching in your house. It's even more startling when it begins to talk. And it's astonishing for it to tell you that the carpet on your floor is actually a magic one...
