Description

In a quiet English valley, brother and sister Dan and Una stumble upon the mischievous spirit known as Puck, the last of the ancient hill‑folk. He offers them a curious blessing: the power to see and hear the people who once walked the same fields—Norman knights, Roman centurions, Tudor builders—though the world around them remains ordinary. The children’s everyday life suddenly hums with whispers from centuries past, and simple walks become portals through time.

One midsummer morning the pair set out barefoot to track an otter in a mist‑cloaked brook. As they follow the slippery trail across meadow and forge, the landscape seems to pulse with hidden histories, and fleeting encounters with long‑gone characters hint at the layered lives of the land. Through Puck’s gentle guidance, Dan and Una learn that even the smallest steps can uncover a kingdom of stories, inviting listeners to share in the wonder of a countryside where past and present quietly converse.
