Book Description

18 Nov 2004
There was once a group of trees who were fed up with living in a deep, dark and crowded valley - so they moved to the enchanted forest. But as everybody knows, trees cannot walk without magic. This is the story of how Jack, the small boy with the frozen touch, wanders in to the forest and ends up saving the magic from the greedy goblins outside. An exquisitely illustrated and beautifully told story.

3.0 out of 5 stars NOT 'good' condition 10 Feb 2013
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a nice story with lovely illustrations but it was not in 'good' condition which was a shame. It was only £2.80 so will not bother sending it back. It looked more like buying it in a jumble sale but at at least then I would only be paying 20p!
