The Magical Woods

The Magical Woods is a story of two runaways, Hina and Hussain. Hina’s story is about a girl who develops an ability to talk to animals. A black cat becomes her best friend and their adventures together include helping a duck who can’t fly and nursing an injured flamingo who is afraid to eat fish from a pond.

Hussain’s story is about a boy—a button carver—who runs away with his dog and finds himself in a strange city. He carves wood by day and searches for home by night. His adventures include travelling through a land of thick snow and fighting off muggers in a run-down part of town.
