The Maple Tree Speaks.
"This is my story. It began two winter seasons ago. One fine February morning while stretching my limbs upward into the blue skies, I saw the most spectacular sight: a miniature air balloon piloted by one wee traveler. She and her Companion were from a land nestled among stars far from Earth called Caelumen.
How happy these two have made me. Their joy in life, their insatiable curiosity, and creativity have been an inspiration to me as well as to all residents in and around the safety of my branches.
I learn daily from Annabelle and Gillian about kindness. Now it’s time for you to be witness.
So let’s begin."
The above quote is the prologue of "The Chronicles of Hissing Sid & The Whimbles - A Winter Tale," and will surely whet any child or adult reader's appetite. Richly illustrated and bound, this 32 page book is a first edition collector's item. The Whimbles, voyagers from Caelumen, their land among faraway stars, are now living most interesting lives on Penstemon Farm. They not only hope you like this serendipitous offering but they also look forward to creating ensuing books, weaving seasonal tales filled with their adventures here on Earth.
