The Queen's Nose

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Queen's Nose was a book written by Dick King Smith, that was adapted into a successful BBC television series. It is about a girl called Harmony Parker who finds a magical 50p coin, which grants wishes every time the nose on the face of Queen Elizabeth II is rubbed. After the third series Harmony throws the coin into a lake in order to give another child a chance to find it and use its powers. The remaining series follow the adventures of the other children.
