ADVENTURES OF THE WISHING-CHAIR (1937) by Enid Blyton
Description:
Mollie and Peter, searching for a birthday present for their mother, find a mysterious antiques shop which appears to be run by fairy folk. There, they find a magic wishing chair with the power to grow wings and fly. After the chair rescues them from the shop, and gets them home, they decide to keep the chair in their playhouse. On their first flight, they rescue a pixie called Chinky from a giant.
The pixie comes to live in their playroom, and the remainder of the book concerns the adventures of the children, as the chair takes them, and Chinky to various magical places. They also get into trouble due to some invisible paint, and a boy who makes faces, and cannot unmake them. But they also have some good adventures like going to Greatheart, the magician's party or going to Grabbit Gnomes. The children have a most pleasant time with the chair, with some near misses!

The next rainy day, Peter and Mollie use the "Wing-growing" ointment on some of their toys, and unfortunately Mollie accidentally makes Chinky's wand fly too by touching it with ointment-covered fingers. The chair takes them to Mr Grim's school, a rather horrible school where the teacher asks all sorts of ridiculous, impossible questions that even he doesn't know the answer to.
