by Joan Aiken
Two bad fairies attended the christening and ... it was a case of 'Which pig is the princess?' ...There's the sad, spell-binding tale of Johnny Rigby; about tears locked in a heart and a heart locked in a river; the story of a confiding little ghost puppy; and a weird history of a baby whose cradle lay across the wolf's path, and what befell him. Harriet and Mark Armitage, the children with the pet unicorn, are here again engaged upon an adventure concerning a griffin's egg; and of course there is the fairy tale of the title about a little orphan girl called Nerryn and the magic harp of fishbones she made in memory of her lost father. -- publisher's description.
