About

The fairy Peaseblossom and the goblin Toadstool set off on the oddest mission: to lure a girl and a boy to Faery, to bring before the Queen - for her subjects in Fairyland are too well-behaved to be amusing. Can they find the right dreamers? Then Peaseblossom encounters Alice, who wishes she could watch a setting sun at all times - while Toadstool runs into the nearly penniless Richard, who wants a buy a new umbrella for his mother. Perfect!

Yet nothing can go as planned... and soon Alice and Richard find themselves alone and lost in a strange woods, with no help but the guidance of the strange creatures they encounter along the way.

George MacDonald, author of "Phantastes," here presents three tales of magical Faery - "Cross Purposes," "The Shadows," and "The Flight of the Shadow."
