The Queen's Nose

There isn’t much magic in Harmony’s life, what with her awful older sister Melody hogging the limelight. She spends her life daydreaming of a fantasy world where she can have as many pets as she likes. Then Harmony finds a magical 50p piece in a treasure hunt. When you rub the Queen’s nose, your wishes come true. She could ask for anything – even a million pets! The question is: what should Harmony wish for?
