Beyond the ordinary woodlands lies a deeper, stranger Forest, and into it a child's fairy-tale journey leads, toward wonders and enchantments waiting past the edge of the everyday.

Mildred Kennedy's 1913 book is a gentle, imaginative fairy tale for children. Charming, dreamlike, tenderly told. Read it for a warm storybook fantasy in the classic mold, where a young protagonist ventures past the familiar woodlands into a realm of magic and marvel.
