    About this ebook

    Once upon a time, there was a small girl called Pym in a small village called Lakeville. She was a famous girl in the village because of her sense of humor. That is why villagers called her 'The Silly Girl". Her parents were impoverished, but they were able to spend their days happily because they had Pym by their side.

    When Pym was about 5 years old, her grandmother used to tell her stories about a Dark Village, far, far away from Lakeville. That was Pyms' favorite story, as she always wanted to visit "The Dark Village" one day in real life, but grandmother was not serious about the stories, and she only told those stories to Pym, just to make her scared about the outer world.
