and the third series also by Steve Attridge winning the Indie Awards 1999 prize for Digital Cinematography. [3] According to a podtail interview with Victoria Shalet in February 2021, the director Carol Wiseman was responsible for her being cast in the role of Harmony Parker after she had been impressed with the actress after working with her on the TV series Goggle-Eyes in 1993. [4] The fifty-pence coin, that Uncle Ginger apparently got from India, is magic; with a magic Queen's head, with her pointed nose, on one side of it. It can grant its owner seven wishes.

The Queen's Nose' is a sweet little book for children that can be read in a couple of hours. Animal fans are sure to like it, as well as people who like to make-believe, to wish for things that they hope will come true, and to go out and play and explore and ride their bike and do all sorts of things to keep fit and healthy. Never mind how dirty and raggedy you may get! urn:lcp:queensnose0000king_o9c5:epub:ba0413f6-d6e6-4aa4-9347-72fd67885b9f Foldoutcount 0 Identifier queensnose0000king_o9c5 Identifier-ark ark:/13960/t3zt1zv2q Invoice 1652 Isbn 0141318236 a b c d e f g List of cast 2011 "The Queen's Nose". rupert-graves.com .

But she discovers that you have to be careful what you wish for, as the Queen’s nose doesn’t always grant wishes in quite the way you might expect... The Queen's nose" had done it again. Uncle Ginger recovered from his serious illness and came home in search of a house near Harmony's family. A few downsides to the book are: once Harmony receives her pets, not much attention is paid to them, after all of her longing; and her mother and older sister Melody are rather stereotypical - a fussy, old-fashioned housewife and an overly-feminine, shallow, self-absorbed and mean teenage girl respectively - but they do soften up and show more dimension towards the end of the novella.

When Harmony's Uncle Ginger comes to visit for the first time, Harmony immediately sees the "Silvertip Grizzly" as somewhat different to her family, someone she can relate to. When Uncle Ginger leave to return to India, Harmony feels sad and lost. Uncle Ginger gives Harmony a very gift when he leaves, but little does Harmony know quite how special the gift is. Inside that little brown envelope in Harmony's hand was the start of a treasure hunt that would lead her to a very special 50 pence coin. Now all Harmony had to do was unravel the riddles that followed only to work out that the 50 pence piece her Uncle gave her was very special indeed... it was MAGIC! I found this book to be very realistic for children's real life family situations. I thought it was brilliant that, at the end, the aspect was brought through that life is more about love and relationships than simply getting everything you may think you "wish" for. The characters have such lovely names - Harmony, Melody, Uncle Ginger, and all the people who ten-year-old Harmony names after different animals, based on their appearance and conduct. If Harmony could have one thing in the whole world, she would have an animal, or two. In fact, she is so besotted by animals that she imagines every person she meets to be some sort of animal; for example, her Uncle Ginger was, in her eyes, a silvertip grizzly bear. The only problem is, Harmony's family see animals as being dirty and messy, so she has to make do with Rex Ruff Monty, her 3 legged dog teddy which had been passed down form her grandmother.The Queen's Nose has also been broadcast in Germany, under the name Die Magische Münze (The Magic Coin). [6] Cast [ edit ] The book is about a young girl called Harmony, who her family don't quite seem to understand. She is a 10 year old girl, rather tom-boyish, and completely different to her elder sister, Melody.
