And one day, when father and mother went to work, heavy clouds brooded over the house, lightning flashed, a strong hail started, and then the wind broke out. It was of such a force that it began to demolish all the buildings around, to smash the boats into pieces at the nearest marina.


Alice was very scared, she climbed onto her bed and pulled cover over her head. That way she had been sitting until she felt that the house was got off the ground and carried in an unknown direction.




The girl ran up to the window and looked down – they had already passed her native village, flew across the lake, mountains, some city. And then everything began to spin and disappeared before her eyes.


When Alice woke up, she realized that the house did not fly anywhere. She got up and looked out of the window. There was a sunny lawn dotted with different flowers in front of her. The butterflies were flying and the birds were singing there, so the girl left the house and went to look around.


She walked a little, picked flowers, twisted a wreath from them, lay down on the grass, admiring the azure cloudless sky, but suddenly her eyes became round in surprise – about a meter away some tiny creature, similar to a girl with wings, was hovering over her.
