Description
Tom was a poor, ill-treated chimney sweep who ran away when he was wrongly accused of stealing. But his life was changed for ever when he jumped into a stream and was rescued by the Queen of Fairies, who turned him into a water-baby. In the strange, underwater world he travelled to the Other-End-of-Nowhere, having all sorts of adventures and meeting strange people like Mrs Doasyouwouldbedoneby, who taught him some important lessons.
