Edith was born at a time of magic and fairies. As a newborn she received two gifts: the ability to bring any object to life and eternal childhood. That’s why today, 100 years later, Edith is celebrating her centenary as a ten-year-old. What will she wish for this time? Perhaps a new friend. Certainly a new life—being ten forever has its downside.

On her birthday, Edith sets off to find the fairy who bewitched her and reverse the spell. She takes her only friends, a wise dog and a talking lemon, to find herself a future she can live with.

Fully illustrated in color, this one-of-a-kind chapter book bursts with good things: the dry wit of a faithful dog, a fairytale adventure, camping, boating, friendship and danger, and a question that matters.
