The Elves and the Shoemaker
Elven Gratitude
The elves danced with joy! "Thank you, thank you!" they squeaked. "You are the kindest people in Whimsywood!" They gave Barnaby and Willow each a tiny, sparkling acorn. "Plant these," they said, "and they will bring you good fortune." With a final wave, the elves disappeared into the morning mist.
