Jess is delighted when she finds the perfect picture to cover up a dirty mark on her bedroom wall. The beautiful portrait of a girl with tumbling red hair is exactly the right size, and she doesn’t even have to pay for it!

Her mum thinks Jess is making it all up, but she’s in for a shock when she experiences the power of the painting for herself …
