Ned, who likes to read about gnomes and fairies, is visited by the gnome king who takes him to his kingdom. Ned then has a series of little adventures. Even though I've taken into account this story was first published in 1922, it was a bit disappointing because throughout the story Ned is mostly a by-stander. He doesn't really participate in his adventures or help solve any of the problems he encounters. Still, it was nice little story and a quick read.
