Publisher's Synopsis
Three children discover an old country estate during their school holidays. When they're exploring it they come upon a mysterious young girl claiming to be a fairy princess. She shows them the castle's treasure, including a ring that will turn you invisible. But no one is more surprised than she when she slips it on her finger ... and disappears! The ring is indeed magical, and the children waste no time finding out what else it can do. A thoughtless boy is taught a lesson by his cat; a girl sent upstairs in disgrace is whisked to the world of her dreams; a magic telescope brings two boys a fortune; some very sensible princes and princesses outwit wicked fairies and usurpers ... These twelve spellbinding stories open the door to the magic world of the imagination.
