''A Girl in the Valley!''

''A Girl in the Valley!''

Blessed with natural beauty, she lives in a world where she believes magic can happen every day. Mostly, it is because of the bed time stories her grandma narrates her; of flying reindeers, of talking trees, of charming princes and angelic fairies.. There is nothing wrong in the world of this 4 year old daughter of nature. Her world is in perfect order, a state of blissful harmony where her grandma tells her stories all day long while her mother spends most of her time looking after the only goat they rear and her father goes out in search of any little work he can get.
Her day starts with the sun and sets with it,  the only thing she dreams about though is a sunny day where she can play all time with her friends  on the mountain top. Alas, most days are now shrouded by the dark clouds that have started to hover over her world, gripping her with an unfamiliar fondness. The sun never shines brightly these days and her friends hardly come out to play.
