Fairy Story
註釋A wish, a kidnapping and a magic spell propel 10-year-old James Bell and his family into an adventure beyond belief. At the moment of the lunar eclipse on the stroke of midnight the World is to be sold. Armed with only the power of his imagination and the contents of his money box, James must challenge the greed of the mighty Bogus Corporation, a sinister bank and the mysterious Gnomes of Zurich in a race against time to stop the the sale of the World and prevent the destruction of childhood. Written for the child in all of us, Fairy Story weaves folk legend, magic and superstition into a tale of intrigue and high adventure which, in the wake of events on Wall Street's, spins a particularly cool fable for our times.
