Some Little People

"Some Little People" by George Kringle is a story set in the countryside where 'Lisbeth Lillibun, a young girl, dreams of escaping to the exciting city of London, a hundred miles away. Accompanied by her brother, Dickon, she begins a small adventure a mile from home, but her mind is more than a mile away, consumed with thoughts of London. As 'Lisbeth explores with her brother, she is captivated by the fantasy of city life and the idea of grand adventures, while Dickon wants her to appreciate the beauty of their current life. She learns how important it is to appreciate your life as it is, to understand if fantasy is better than reality, and the importance of family and home.
