April 10. “Can we get back to our story?”

“Sure, Button.”

Apart from Shabby, Magic, Mogambo, Mambo, Mystique and Mischief, MoJo’s garden had a long winding path that led to a cottage right at the end.

As MoJo walked and skipped along, she saw trees so tall that they almost touched the skies. What are these things that keep flying around, he asked Shabby. As MoJo had never seen butterflies, the tiny colourful things fascinated her.

She added these to the painting she was etching in her mind.

What’s that at the end of the road, Shabby—asked MoJo.

That’s the cottage where he lives, answered Shabby.

Who’s he? Asked MoJo.

His name is Boo and he owns this place. Come, I’ll take you and introduce him to you.

When the two of them reached the cottage, Shabby threw open the door to find Boo expecting them.
