The Bewitched Lamp is a novel written by Mary Louisa Molesworth and published in 1891. The story follows the adventures of two siblings, Rosamund and Gerald, who stumble upon a magical lamp while exploring their grandmother's attic. The lamp, which has been cursed by a wicked genie, has the power to grant wishes but also brings misfortune to those who use it.Despite warnings from their grandmother and a mysterious visitor, the children cannot resist the temptation to make wishes with the lamp. Their wishes come true, but with each wish, the consequences become more dire. As the children struggle to undo the curse and free themselves from the genie's grip, they must confront their own selfish desires and learn the true meaning of happiness.The Bewitched Lamp is a classic tale of magic and morality that has enchanted readers for over a century.
