Tiny Dancers

Hello there. Welcome to the Grove. You want to hear the stories don’t
you? I figured as much. Which would you like to hear? I know so many of them.

All of them? No. I haven’t been in the Grove long enough to know them
all. So which will it be? There must be one you want to hear most of all?

Oh little one, if I told you all the ones I know, you would never be
able to leave. No that is not an option. You must return to your family soon,
and it is a long walk there from my little cottage.

How about I tell you my favorite one? Alright. Go over to that shelf
over there. Do you see that book there? On the third shelf. It is worn and
used. The binding starting to fray and the leather starting to ware. Yes, that
one.

Alright, come sit and make yourself comfortable.

Are you ready? Good. Now to the land below the leaves. Where the tiny
dancers live and play.
