This story beings with a brother and sister who are very different and do not get along. One day, their mother is fed up with their fighting and bickering and sends them outside to play together. The brother and sister go to a waste ground. The boy is frustrated because he doesn't want to spend time with his sister. Before long, he finds a tunnel and tells his sister to follow him through it. She was scared so instead she waited for him to come out. When he does not, she follows him through the tunnel and through a scary forest.
The illustration in this story are beautiful! It reminded me of Into the Forest because the trees in the forest the sister walks through are very similar. They show wolves and other scary things. Anthony Browne does a fantastic job with his realistic illustrations that make the forest in this story come alive!
