Знакомьтесь, это наш герой Сэмюэль Блинк. Только он об этом не знает. О том, что он – герой и самый притом настоящий. Сэмюэль спас свою сестричку Марту из плена ужасно-ужасной злющей ведьмы, которая охотится за тенями и живет — а вы думали где? — в Тенистом лесу, где водятся одноглазые добрые тролли, правдивые пикси и опасные хульдры, которые потом передумали быть опасными и стали петь гимны солнцу.
Однако для того, чтобы выручить Марту, Сэмюэлю пришлось ненадолго стать белым кроликом, а преданному псу Ибсену удалось вернуть свой прежний – человеческий – облик.

It isn’t until a passing lion intervenes that Penguin finally speaks ... and when he does, Ben discovers something that was really worth the wait.
