Howell, Alice
THE BEEJUM BOOK offers a journey into a world of fantasy that, deep down, each of us knows and longs for. It tells the story of Teak, a child living abroad between the two World Wars. Teak's mother tells her not to worry about being left alone, because every night, when she goes to sleep, they can meet in Beejumstan. Teak's adventures in this magical realm bring her face to face with wonderfully colorful characters such as Figg Newton, the alchemist, the witches Rudintruda and Idy Fixx, and Geezebius, the Wise Old Man. Alice O. Howell is a wise woman who can present deep truths in simple and engaging ways. August.
