The Girl of the Hazel Tree
Rosa could have anything she wanted: nice dresses, precious toys, and well-bred pets. But all she really wants is to spend time with the hazel tree elf named Corrilus — and he with her. When she gets old enough to attend the local dances, her father tells her to turn her back on the fairy world and meet young men and women her age. Reluctantly she goes — but is amazed to find a handsome young stranger there who looks very familiar. Could it be her adored tree elf in a man’s form?
