The Queen's Nose

Product Information

I found this book to be very realistic for children's real life family situations. I thought it was brilliant that, at the end, the aspect was brought through that life is more about love and relationships than simply getting everything you may think you "wish" for. This fantastic tale from the bestselling author of Babe, The Sheep-Pig stars Lauren Mote as Harmony and Rupert Graves as Uncle Ginger.

The characters have such lovely names - Harmony, Melody, Uncle Ginger, and all the people who ten-year-old Harmony names after different animals, based on their appearance and conduct.When Harmony's Uncle Ginger comes to visit for the first time, Harmony immediately sees the "Silvertip Grizzly" as somewhat different to her family, someone she can relate to. When Uncle Ginger leave to return to India, Harmony feels sad and lost. Uncle Ginger gives Harmony a very gift when he leaves, but little does Harmony know quite how special the gift is. Inside that little brown envelope in Harmony's hand was the start of a treasure hunt that would lead her to a very special 50 pence coin. Now all Harmony had to do was unravel the riddles that followed only to work out that the 50 pence piece her Uncle gave her was very special indeed... it was MAGIC! The novel was adapted into three television series by the BBC which were broadcast during the CBBC slot between 1995 and 1998. The stories remained faithful to the book, although in the book Harmony is granted only seven wishes compared to the ten wishes being granted upon rubbing the coin in the TV series. The first series by Steve Attridge, directed by Carol Wiseman and edited by Sue Robinson, won the Royal Television Society 1996 award for best Children's Drama, [2] In 2011 The Queen's Nose was adapted for radio by Elizabeth Kuti [12] and the hour-long drama was broadcast on Radio 4 Extra on Sunday 26 June 2011.

A few downsides to the book are: once Harmony receives her pets, not much attention is paid to them, after all of her longing; and her mother and older sister Melody are rather stereotypical - a fussy, old-fashioned housewife and an overly-feminine, shallow, self-absorbed and mean teenage girl respectively - but they do soften up and show more dimension towards the end of the novella.
