About This Book
Four loyal elves are sent by their queen to find a southern pine grove for her palace, but they detour to seek a fabled beautiful world. Along the way they transform a grove, suffer a wing injury, are tempted and threatened by a boastful toad, and receive help from spiders, glowworms, grasshoppers, field mice, birds, and bees. The episodic journey combines peril and small rescues, emphasizing curiosity, cooperation, and the growing appreciation of home as the elves press onward in search of a warmer realm.
