A collection of tales told by two very different brains - different and yet the same. One, the lady, studies the pictures in the house and wonders about the tales they tell - in some cases relating her interpretation of them to her own situation. The other, her elf, knows there is big work to be done and it is she who takes up the challenge and prepares to fight, beat and win the trials, tribulations and battles that befall them. It is going to be a long journey, but with the help and friendship of a
dragon,
an
extremely small fieldmouse
and a
Most Marvellous Musical Major
things do not always seem so bad.
Twelve stories with
paintings
by a variety of
artists
form the lady's tales and fourteen
line drawings
by the author
illustrate
the elf's curious, complicated and not always successful endeavours.
