First he set out at night -- and heard a weird noise from a tree. 'Whoo-whooo! My goodness, if it isn't Uncle Wiggily!' cried the owl in surprise. 'What are you doing out so late, I'd like to know ' 'Waiting for a moonbeam, so I can see if there is any gold for my fortune at the end of it.' That was the old rabbit's answer! 132 pp. Englisch.

Thus the Mermaid Queen and her maidens made a court of beauty -- famed wherever mermaids and merrymen lived. And they often talked of human maids.'How funny it must be to wear clothes!' said one. 'Well, I should like to be a real woman for a while, just to try it, and see how it feels to walk on legs,' said another, rather demurely -- as if afraid the other mermaids might not like her remark. Out rang a lusty chorus, 'No! No! Horrible! What an idea! Who wouldn't be a mermaid ' 132 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Day after day Philip goes on with his building, putting into it almost everything you can think of.He makes steps of the dominoes, and a terrace of the domino-box. He gets bits of wood from the garden to stick into cotton-reels, which make lovely pots -- and the results look like ornamental trees in tubs. Brass finger-bowls serve for domes -- and the lids of brass kettles and coffee-pots make minarets of dazzling splendour! It is a city -- a fabulous, exotic, miniature city! Just to look upon it seemed magical enough -- but even Philip had no clue just how magical it might turn out to be. Edith Nesbit (1858-1924) is considered the first to write fantasy for children with a modern sensibility, giving inspiration to such others as Charles Williams and C.S. Lewis. 144 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -When orphaned Mary Lennox was sent off to Misselthwaite Manor to live with her uncle, everybody said she was the most disagreeable-looking child ever seen. It was true, too. She had a little thin face and a little thin body, thin light hair and a sour expression. Her hair was yellow, and her face was yellow because she had been born in India and had always been ill in one way or another. Indeed, she was 'Mistress Mary, Quite Contrary,' through and through! Yet there was something strange about the place she was heading for. Said Mrs. Medlock to Mary beforehand, 'Do you know anything about your uncle ' 'No,' said Mary frowning. She frowned because she remembered how her father and mother had never talked to her about anything in particular. 'Humph,' muttered Mrs. Medlock, staring at Mary's queer, unresponsive little face for a few moments. Then she said, 'I suppose you might as well be told something, to prepare you. You are going to a rather queer place!' 188 pp. Englisch.
