Bean Seed and the Swing

Esperanta Seed - or Bean Seed, as everyone except her mum calls her, is a bit of a misfit. ‎She spends a lot of the time hiding behind the fringe of her long black hair, trying not to be ‎noticed. She's quite small, so this isn't too difficult. Her only friend is Ash, recently arrived ‎in the village and staying in a caravan nearby. Ash helps Bean to be ‎braver, encouraging her to do something she's never been able to do ‎before - jump off her swing while it's in full flight. Oh, and land without hurting ‎herself too! But each time, as the crucial moment approaches, Bean just can't bring herself to let ‎go. That is, until very early one Sunday morning, when Bean wakes up before it's light and heads out ‎to the swing at the bottom of her garden to have a little practice while nobody else is ‎around. When Bean next opens her eyes after landing on the ground, she quickly ‎realises that she is no longer in her own garden. And just who is that bending over her with a decidedly grumpy expression on their face?‎

What happens next will change Bean's life forever. But she's never quite ‎sure if what happens to her is really, really real...‎
