About this book

A tiny traveler can find a whole wilderness among flowers and pebbles. Václav Tille builds this children’s fairy tale around Little Tom and the kindly Godmother who helps him through its dangers. The story opens beside a forest, where a widow gathers healing herbs and tends a carefully kept cottage garden. Her Christmas Eve brings a strange visitor beneath the tree, setting the scene for a world where household comforts and enchantment meet.

Tom’s small size makes ordinary surroundings uncertain territory. He rides behind his Godmother’s brooch to reach the meadow, explores a stone among the heather, and meets a bumblebee who offers to carry him up to a flower. The pleasure lies in seeing familiar plants and creatures from his unfamiliar scale. Detailed descriptions of the cottage, garden and blossoms give the adventures a concrete setting, while Tom’s curiosity and dependence on his Godmother keep the story close to a child’s experience.
