Jessica and Matthew are twins who visit their great grandmother. While in the attic they come across old fashioned dolls and a Victorian dollÕs house.
One doll magically comes to life and introduces herself as Miranda. Miranda tells the children that the fan she holds is magical. By shaking it she can whisk herself back in time and the twins with her.
The twins agree to go with Miranda into the dollÕs house where they will find themselves back in the Victorian times. Miranda gives one shake of the fan and the twins find themselves magically transported into the house. The figures in the house all come to life and interact with the children.
They have fun with the chimney sweep, get on the wrong side of cook and make an enemy out of the butler. They get to know all the characters in the house and they learn about how they live before being whisked back into the 21st century.
