Heart Of The Wood The mole reached his porch by
late afternoon. The door was neatly built into the

into the thick roots, upon which new fallen leaves
lay in all shades of green. He swept them away
with his foot and turned the key. The entrance
hall was round and wide, rising twenty feet to a
second hollow. Warm sunlight shone through this
window, dusky rays of soft gold. For a moment he
