Marissa the Forest Spirit

by Nancy Donovan

Marissa the rag doll has lived snuggled between the roots of an old oak tree for so long she has become a forest spirit. Her face and body have turned green. Her ears are now pointed like leaves. Her hair looks like a tangle of vines with purple berries.Children having a picnic discover her. Marissa surprises them by speaking. She offers to tell them her life story. Magical things happen.
