Fireworks are fun but they can cause accidental fires. This is exactly what happens to Cyril, Anthea, Robert, Jane and
Lamb — they lose their old nursery carpet in one such fire. But is it a blessing in disguise? Well, let us see! A new carpet
arrives; and it has a big, glowing egg wrapped inside it! And lo, the egg hatches into an awesome golden phoenix. Well, it
is no longer a mystery that the carpet is magical and the phoenix can carry the children to any place in the world on it.
They only need to make a wish!
The Phoenix and the Carpet is the second book in fantastic Psammead trilogy. It was published in 1904 and has been a
children’s favourite ever since. It has also been adapted for television many a time.
