Father is not very happy with the boy. The boy should have listened to Father. Surely, every boy needs to play, run, and be wild…but the boy can never be free…not really. Now the boy has done something quite bad and made Father very unhappy. Go to your room, young man! But the rooms here are very small, and dark, and cold, and the boy is not very happy in them. No one is happy. But sometimes, even from a bad time, something special and unexpected can blossom.

It isbeautiful; it isfree; it catches the eye and will not let go, and because of that it is worth pursuing.New readers and old fans will enjoy getting hooked. Read Full Review
