From the dark northern thickets to the humid tropical jungles, the forest arches allure and frighten people.

Read carefully — and you will learn the tales that the leaves whisper in the wind: about sacred trees, dryads and werewolves, horned hares, kitsune, and unicorns. Take a lantern — and venture under the arch of dark branches to uncover all the secrets of the wild forest.
From the Author

Perhaps a person will never fully understand what a forest is, just as they will never fully comprehend life. But we should not cease to attempt to do so.
