A spellbinding collection of stories old and new, of real life and of magic. Some of the world's most imaginative writers have given us these tales: about Rohan who has a magic pencil and rubber; about Tommy and his enchanted barley sugar; about the little girl who saves the white bears and the West Wind who gives Laura a very special necklace. Enthralling, stimulating and very entertaing, these superb stories will transport listeners to the world of their imaginations - and beyond!
