Cosy enough for a spot of reading, perhaps? Most certainly!
The thick, beautifully decorated book appeared from thin air and stood upwards by the fireplace of the kitchen. The gold lettering glistened against the flames and let off a magnificent glow. A glow that simply had to be appreciated. Come along and pick it up for a quick nose! You know you want to!
Frustrated, but finally clean, Thornton made his way to the kitchen for something to eat. Head down, he shuffled past the fireplace, but something caught his eye.
Doubling back, he looked at the book. Fairy tales.
His parents had told him he was too old for those. But after the last few weeks, he wondered if his parents knew anything about how the rest of the world worked. Madness. It was all madness.
And so he grabbed the book, intending to go get some cookies and settle in for a good read.
