Another interesting chapter in your book. I like that the Guardian sent the children back to the attic to rest and reconsider their decision to go on an adventure. I hope they don't get hurt in the process of the adventure. Just curious: Why did you make the Guardian plural (they)?
Blessings. Carol

I love the mirror key, it's such a blessing to think they can return at will to where there adventures started, the guardian is well named, I think all of us are guardians in some form or other, I love this adventure, it is so diffent from your normal ones. Well done, blessings Roy

The forest certainly does sound like a magical place, and you do a brilliant job of bringing it to life in the reader's mind in this chapter. Another exciting, well written piece, Carol, I really enjoyed reading it.

You had me scratching my head, figuring I must have missed something. But that's not odd, because most of the time I'm just stumbling along behind all the little animals anyway. Thanks for sharing.

Now this makes sense and their adventure fits together. This would make a great mid-grade reader with some illustrations. Best of luck with this if you try selling it. I think it should go over very well. One word needs changed: Guardian's form . . . , and (then) extended. . .

Carol,

What a great addition to your story. Even if it is in reverse, had you not said anything I probably wouldn't have noticed. My brain is on vacation too.

Love you lots my friend.

I'm very much enjoyed the story even if it's out of order you still did a very good job with it and it can be entertained the whole time. I was listening to it. This would make a wonderful storybook for children in their ages from say 8 to 12 or 13. Patricia.

Now it makes a little more sense. Thank you.

The Guardian's voice was calm and reassuring. "Mistakes are how we learn, (reassuring,)

    i was just fixing Mrs. Baker and I'll catch the other one now. I can't believe I didn't post it...wrote it last night and then left it sitting there. I'm losing my mind.
