It was not a dream, though it seemed like one at first: Mary Brown finds herself in a different place, meets her Fairy-Godmother, and discovers the wonders that magic counters can do.

Thomas Cobb's 1900 book is a gentle, whimsical fairy fantasy for children. Charming, imaginative, warmly told. Read it for a sweet Edwardian storybook where a little girl is whisked into a world of fairy-godmothers, magic tokens, and nested wonder-tales, in the beloved tradition of children's enchantment.
