Rubbing to edges and corners bumped.  Spine and covers creased.

'I'm up here,' said Gwinny. 'And I can't come down!'

It all started with what seemed like perfectly ordinary chemistry sets, given by the Ogre to Johnny and Malcolm to keep them from quarrelling.  The adventures began when some of the mixture from Johnny's experiement splashed over Gwinny's legs.  The next thing they knew, she was floating up near the bedroom ceiling!  The children knew they had to join together to keep their extraordinary secret - after all, it was much more exciting than quarrelling!
