Only the first chapter of a long chaptered fic, but it already shows signs of exceptional quality. A little girl playing by herself in the woods around Ottery St Catchpole makes the aquaintance of two seven-year-old red-haired twins. This is imaginative, lovely and fun. A perfect balance between infant Utopia - how many parents or guardians would allow a seven-year-old to run free on her own in this day and age? - and childhood romance - the friendships born and made with hardly a question asked, just "Who are you?" - "I am Anne", as if that explained everything, the way that everything is either so exciting you just have to run for it or so boring you are already looking for something else to do - all so dense with that smell and feel of early years, JUst lovely. I have not been so entusiastic about a HP chaptered fic since Inverarity. Do go and read it.
