Hazel Hooper strolled along the orchard path, whistling quietly and enjoying the sun on her back. Beams of light slanted through the trees, turning the floating cherry blossom into flakes of gold. It was a perfect summer’s day in The Glade, the only home she had ever known.

She plucked an apple from her basket and took a huge bite, letting the juice dribble down her chin. Just right for a pie, she thought.

She froze, mid-munch, as something large and orange burst out on to the path in front of her. It was Ginger-Tom, her mother’s bad-tempered cat-familiar, with whom Hazel was in a perpetual state of war. Something small and furry dangled in his jaws.

“Tom!” Hazel shouted. “What have you got there? Oh, you horrible creature – it’s a poor little dormouse.”

Bursting with rage, she hurled her apple as hard as she could. It flew over Tom’s head and exploded against a nearby tree, showering him with sticky pulp.
