Adventure begins with a book. And an A. The Book of Wisdom-ish is where short stories meet a novel, set in the faery tale kingdom of Hearts Melting.

Wielding only a potato masher, twelve-year-old Mary must deal with a demon (proving a book should be judged by its cover). Then she notices a peculiar sky-hole... Grass-eating faery Draxen demonstrates his friendship, Cook is challenged by the proof of the puddings and two-headed giant Crackncrag struggles to be understood.
