"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). "If more books of this order were produced, it would elevate the tastes and increase the desire for obtaining a higher order of literature." -- The Critic "We can promise every lover of fine fiction a wholesome feast in the book." -- Boston Traveler
