Well, tuck yourself in, and let Onjali Rauf entertain you with her first collection of never-before-told fables of magic and mayhem... Beautifully illustrated by Katarzyna Doszla in full colour. From the sand-laden shores of Egypt, where an Axe married a Tree... To the mountains of Japan where dragons and hungry mirrors roam ... To the ancient trees of the Amazon where a bed destined to steal time is forged ...
