    Afternoon of the Elves

    Sarah-Kate is the strangest girl Hilary has ever known and still she doesn’t quite believe the mean things the other girls say about Sarah-Kate. When Sarah-Kate invites Hilary to her house after school one day, Hilary discovers that her suspicions are right. Sarah-Kate may be a little odd but she is also the most fascinating person Hilary has ever met. In her backyard amid the tangle of overgrown weeds and junk is the tiniest, most perfect elf village. Together Sarah-Kate and Hilary work to maintain the little village as Sarah-Kate teaches Hilary all about elves. But as Hilary becomes closer to Sarah-Kate, the elf village and its mysterious citizens become the least of the mysteries surrounding the peculiar Sarah-Kate. A poignant and wistful tale of magic and friendship.
