Anthea, Robert, and Chris are resigned to a boring week in their late Grandfather's country cottage with no TV until they discover a mouldy old carpet and a strange golden egg. However, when the egg falls into the fire, it hatches into the mythical firebird, the Gloden Phoenix. So begins an incredible journey and a once-in-a-lifetime adventure as the Phoenix transports them to a land of enchantment, magic, and fantasy - via a magical flying carpet. L.H. Wong wrote this.
