Step into the enchanting world of The Phoenix and the Carpet, a delightful fantasy novel for children penned by E. Nesbit in 1904. This story is the second installment in a beloved trilogy that began with Five Children and It (1902), continuing the adventures of five spirited siblings – Cyril, Anthea, Robert, Jane, and the Lamb. After their mother purchases a new carpet to replace the one lost to a fire, the children embark on a thrilling journey when they discover a mysterious egg hidden within its fibers. When the egg hatches, a talking Phoenix emerges, revealing that the carpet is magical and can grant them three wishes each day. Join the children as they navigate their wishes and the unexpected adventures that follow! (Summary from Wikipedia)
