"...the sound of the little bell hung round his neck could eat sorry." What beautiful lines and images this old and gorgeously translated story is full of -- the allusion to train schedules! : ) This is a story to be read out loud to friends and family, even if some of them must be physically restrained while you're reading. Today, Friday afternoon in a hot NorCal city, the Fairy Dog's bell dispelled the air-conditioned drone of a work day afternoon in a hotel conference room and made me go outside to tune my ears to any faint tinkling.
I like to read all your posts aloud, and this one is like reading someone softly and kindly to sleep.

What a beautiful story, thank you.
