A soft wind rustled a pine tree's huge boughs as the sun began to set. Rabbits and squirrels scampered back to their burrows and trees. It was getting dark and they knew it was time to hide. An old cottage sat in a clearing in the woods. It's old wooden door swung in the wind with a dreadful creaking. The roof was crumbled and the shutters had fallen off. It was your typical old cottage, except for one strange thing. Melted candy and crushed cakes, pies, and tarts surrounded the house. Sticky gum drops flopped over the window sills like wilted tulips. The cottage was like something from a fairy tale long. long ago.......
