  • The Little Green Man

    Liam Francis Kelly

    eBook
    This is the story of a boy Fynn, who does not enjoy school. He is bored. The summer holidays are drawing to a close. He dreams of magic and adventure. He travels into the woods with his best friend Banjo and a girl from school, Bella. Fynn is annoyed and bit jealous that his best friend, Banjo, has brought Bella on the adventure because Fynn secretly considers himself in love with her and has tried to discourage Banjo from being interested in her. On their journey into the woods they meet an eccentric and very unpredictable little green man. The green man is keen to strike a magical bargain with the three travellers. If they agree to the bargain he will allow them to go through a magic door in the woods which has a golden handle. Fynn finds it uncomfortable talking to the little green man as, despite the fact that he seems silly and crazy, he is able to read Fynn's thoughts and to work out that Fynn is greedy for something precious.The little green man has a flute and an axe that appear to be made of silver. When the children comment upon this he appears offended that they do not know that the metal is a magical substance called "quildron". He implies that only people who have passed the temptation of greed can own or hold quildron. But this does not appear to stop the green man hoarding gold coins and using them to tempt the children into his bargain.The three friends have a volatile debate and argument with the little green man, as he tempts them to enter the world beyond the door. Eventually the bargain is struck and it is beyond the door that the real adventure begins. The little green man appears to go through wild mood swings. He is eccentric in appearance and behaviour but apparently wise. He binds the three children to the magical world by taking something very personal from each of them. In the world beyond the door there is danger awaiting each of the children. Fynn must overcome his pride and longing for something precious in order to try to help his friends and himself. As the story ends each of the children know they have had a magical adventure but do not know what it is that the little green man has done to bind them in some magical way. Fynn is left to wonder whether he can create a monster by imagining it, or whether what he imagines already exists.
