"Mary was magical! She was only 8 years old but she was magical. She saw things and felt things people only read about in fairy tales. Her classmates teased her for being weird, and grownups told her to stop being silly. But Mary did not listen to them. She liked being different and loved being magical. She often could be found happily playing on her own in the woods behind her house, dreaming up stories of faeries and sprites or pretending to ride unicorns. And then one day Mary met someone very magical"...and her magical adventures began.
