Dear Mr. Adlard,
Thank you for your concern, I'm feeling much more myself the last few days. Spring weather will certainly be a welcome change. I always enjoy the warmer months. When I worked at the bookstore in Hogsmeade I used to walk to work, simply to enjoy a little sunshine. The floo network does not hold quite the same charm as an evening stroll after a long day.
I've included the anthology for you to enjoy, though I had to place a charm on it so it was small and light enough for my owl to carry, a simple reversal with right it. It's quite large, be wary when you change it back. I hope it pairs well with your creatures book. I must say I never took a class on it myself, but find it to be a fascinating subject. Is it something you read a lot about?
As for Thumbelina, I think the allure for me was the ease of sympathizing with her situations at some points, but also her determination to never settle for less than what she wanted. I do hope you enjoy the book and please hold onto it as long as you like.
Most Sincerely,
Miss Elsie Beauregard
