The Magic Fishbone
Charles Dickens
Princess Alicia receives a magical, wish-granting fishbone from a fairy godmother, but there is a catch: it can only be used once, and only when the time is exactly right. When her royal family falls into chaos from financial ruin, the clever young princess must figure out the perfect moment to unleash its extraordinary power.
Cover and illustrations by S. Beatrice Pearse in 1911. Five full page drawings in color, (the sixth plate is used on the cover) and many in black and white.
