| Summary | "Queen Zixi of Ix; Or, the Story of the Magic Cloak" by L. Frank Baum is a children's fantasy novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the creation of a magical cloak by a band of fairies, which grants its wearer a single wish. The narrative introduces us to Queen Lulea and her fairy companions as they weave the cloak, setting the stage for a whimsical journey filled with adventure, new characters, and magical transformations. At the start of the tale, the fairies gather under the moonlight, yearning for a new form of entertainment. They decide to create a magic cloak that can grant its wearer one wish, hoping to bestow it upon a deserving mortal. Meanwhile, a young girl named Margaret, known as "Fluff," watches as her life takes a turn for the worse after her father's tragic death and the arrival of her stern Aunt Rivette. On a fateful journey to the city of Nole, Fluff encounters the fairy Ereol, who gifts her the very cloak the fairies crafted. Overcome with sorrow, Fluff makes a wish to be happy again, setting off a chain of events that leads to unforeseen complications and whimsical adventures in the kingdom of Noland.
