Publisher's Synopsis
"It's my belief that I belong in a fairy tale somewhere!"
With that pronouncement, young heiress Wych Hazel -- who "bids fair to bewitch all the world with hand and foot and gypsy eyes" -- sets out in pursuit of adventure . . . with her one plan being to take, at each fork in the road, the more difficult route.
Her guardian, Mr. Falkirk, swears the journey will "end in a squirrel track, and run up a tree" -- and adventure aplenty does await them on the road to Chickaree, in this lively novel from two of America's most popular novelists, Susan Warner (1819-85) and Anna Warner (1827-1915).
"We can promise every lover of fine fiction a wholesome feast in the book."
-- Boston Traveler
