In this follow-up to The Christmas Wish, it's springtime "long, long ago," and Nordic child Anja wishes she were small to better conceal herself while playing hide-and-seek with her cousins on their mountain farm. Readers won't remember Anja's stock exchanges with the region's animals, but they'll remember the manipulated color photos of, for example, Anja riding a pinecone down the mountain.
