    ＂It　is，＂　he　said，　his　tone　suddenly　serious.　＂There，s　something　you　need　to　know，　Sukie.　This　book　is　more　than　just　a　collection　of　stories.　It，s　a　key　to　another　world.＂

    Sukie　frowned，　not　sure　if　he　was　joking.　＂Another　world?　What　do　you　mean?＂

    Han　Fengling　looked　around，　ensuring　they　were　alone.　＂This　might　sound　crazy，　but　the　stories　in　this　book　are　real.　They　describe　a　world　that　exists　parallel　to　our　own.　A　world　you　are　destined　to　visit.＂

    When　the　world　finally　came　back　into　focus，　they　were　no　longer　in　the　bookstore.　Sukie　found　herself　standing　in　a　lush，　verdant　forest，　the　air　filled　with　the　sweet　scent　of　flowers　and　the　sound　of　birdsong.　Sunlight　filtered　through　the　canopy　above，　casting　dappled　patterns　on　the　forest　floor.
