Wolf Notes And Other Musical Mishaps (2011)
“Lee said as they all sat round the fire. “You must not let the boy eat faery food, because once he has, he can’t live in your world. Guests who have tired of our hospitality have gone home, to discover their families grown old or died … and when a kind neighbour has comforted them with soup or stew, they have crumbled to dust. So if you want the boy back, you must stop him eating faery food.”
“How?” Helen asked eagerly.
“Feed him human food, of course.”
“If we can get food to him, c...an’t we just grab him and get him out?”
“It’s not that simple. It’s easier to enter the faery world than to escape from it. I can find a window through which you can give him food, but for a doorway through which he can walk out, you’ll have to bargain with the Faery Queen.”
“What can we bargain with?” Helen asked, prodding the ground with a bent stick.
