Lenny & Lucy

　　彼得和父親正打算搬家到一個感覺起來不怎麼友善的黑濛濛森林裡，當他們抵達新家時，彼得嚇得真想掉頭就走，幸好還有哈洛德陪著他，但哈洛德只是隻狗，也無法真的幫上什麼忙。



　　到底有什麼東西躲在樹林裡？彼得又推又拉、又縫又補，堆出了一座枕頭塔……呃，是彼得的守護者連尼。現在，彼得有連尼可以保護他跟哈洛德了！



　　連尼是一個忠心的守護者，但彼得擔心連尼一個人在樹林裡寂寞，於是又堆了另一個枕頭守衛、也就是連尼的新朋友露西。嗯，總之有四個人相伴，彼得、哈洛德、連尼跟露西覺得這個黑濛濛的樹林，好像也不是那麼可怕了。



　　《Lenny & Lucy》是一則充滿奇妙友誼的創意故事，寧靜的故事色彩，加上溫暖的插畫，演繹出一則充滿愛的現代童話。(文/博客來編譯)

Peter and his father are moving to a new house beyond the dark unfriendly woods. When they arrive at their new home, Peter wants to turn back. Fortunately, he has Harold for company, but Harold is just a dog and can't help Peter. Scared of the things hidden in the woods, Peter makes a tall pile of pillows. He stiches and sews. He pushes and pulls. And when he is done, he has Lenny, Guardian of the Bridge, to protect him and Harold.

Lenny is a good guard but Peter worries that Lenny will get lonely out by the woods all by himself, so he makes Lucy, who is a good friend. Together, Lenny, Lucy, Peter, and Harold discover that this new place isn't so scary after all.
