What a lovely story. The prose was beautiful, in that extremely relaxing/wholesome way that makes you sigh with contentment, especially the nature descriptions. I ADORED the nature descriptions . Also, this specific edition of the book made the reading experience 1000 times more magical and special, it was a joy to read while enjoying all the lovely illustrations and the heavy paper. Such a great read for the beggining of Autumun, it was just what I needed
