Into the Wild Woods

Spring was in the air that morning, though it was still cold outside. I made a fire in the library, where I spent a happy afternoon with Quentin and Robin, musing about adventure. A writing slope on the mantle had caught Robin's eye, and when I took it down and opened it, we found - much to our delight - a drawing of an enchanting cottage, along with a key and a map marking its location in the Wild Woods. Of course, Robin wanted to go at once. After some persuasion, Quentin agreed to join us, and so the next morning we set out - across the fields, down the lane, and into the forest. What began as a lighthearted outing, with the promise of a picnic and a cozy night's stay in the cottage, turned to horror the following morning: little Robin was nowhere to be found! At first, we followed his tiny footprints, but they stopped abruptly at the bank of a swift-flowing stream. From there, we found no trace. Desperate to find our friend, we journeyed deep into the dark, foreboding Wild Woods - from snowy mountain tops to the churning green sea. Along the way, we met many new companions who guided and helped us in our urgent quest. But were we too late? Would we ever see dear little Robin again? Or would our lives be changed forever? "Hello dearie, I did so enjoy seeing myself in a real story book, I don't know how the story goes 'cause I can't read the words, but I love looking at all the pretty pictures." - Aunty Winnie "I sat beside the camp fire and read the whole thing in one sitting. My what an adventure you had!" - Elise "Thank you for sending along a copy, I must say I'm rather impressed with my likeness in the portrait, very well done! - I'll visit soon, perhaps we could all meet down in the bay, as I'm not sure I can manage all those steps. Until then safe travels." - Judge DP Bonneville
