- Abstract
- en_US This is one of a boxed set of 30 fable books by Usborne, 32 pages in length, 5" x 7¾". This 32 page booklet is on the first level, and the text is appropriately simple. Ned helps a fairy and gets three wishes. He runs home to tell wife Nat. He wishes for a sausage. When she complains, he wishes it was on the end of her nose. She is angry and tells him to do something. He does. He wishes the sausage off of her nose. Nat: "Now we have no wishes." Ned: "But we do have a sausage!" The booklet finishes with puzzles and answers. First published in England in 2009. This is the first American edition. I myself would not be inclined to categorize this story as a fable. I am, however, happy to include it as a member of this boxed set labeled "Fables."
