Join Cyril, Robert, Anthea, and Jane as they embark on a whimsical adventure sparked by their quest for a new nursery carpet. Little do they know, this carpet is no ordinary one – it houses a magical phoenix egg! As they learn the art of hatching the egg, they encounter a boastful magical creature and a wishing carpet that can read but doesn’t speak, leading them into a whirlwind of hilarious escapades. With a cast that includes a cunning thief, a quirky cook, a plethora of cats, and even a cow, excitement is just around the corner! This enchanting tale is the second installment of the Psammead trilogy, picking up right after Five Children and It, and once again, the children find themselves in chaotic situations that often leave them in trouble and sent to bed!
