Day after day Philip goes on with his building, putting into it
almost everything you can think of.
He makes steps of the dominoes, and a terrace of the domino-box.
He gets bits of wood from the garden to stick into cotton-reels,
which make lovely pots -- and the results look like ornamental
trees in tubs. Brass finger-bowls serve for domes -- and the lids
of brass kettles and coffee-pots make minarets of dazzling
splendour!
It is a city -- a fabulous, exotic, miniature city! Just to look
upon it seemed magical enough -- but even Philip had no clue just
how magical it might turn out to be.
Edith Nesbit (1858-1924) is considered the first to write
fantasy for children with a modern sensibility, giving inspiration
to such others as Charles Williams and C.S. Lewis.
