Walter & Charlie's Great Adventure - Paperback

by Taama Marti Forasiepi (Author)

Deep in the country is a little farm nestled between rolling hills in a yawning valley. It conjures up a time forgotten by progress and is abandoned by the ordinary. It is a place of friends, family, and unusual farmhands. The animals and plants converse, sing, and generally have a good time bringing the products of this magical place to market. Its pond is stocked, the orchard is ready for harvest, and a solitary pumpkin takes a nap by the fire.

The farm is run by Wilmuth and Gunther Marti, an old Swiss family who moved here long ago. It is a hidden family secret, but today there's revived excitement because Charlie, a young boy, has come to visit his Aunt and Uncle. He is new to farming and is tired from his travels. Love and kindness fill the air, but Charlie needs to rest, so he settles down by the fire.

Snap! Sparks spit from the crackling logs and the warm air tempers the cool autumn morning. He relaxes and takes a rhythmic breath, but the calm of the morning is shattered when he is greeted by a talking pumpkin!

It's the beginning of a new friendship and a great adventure that will send things flying!
