One foggy day on the old Post Road, Greta notices the outline of a house where no house has been for a hundred years. Then she spies a horsedrawn carriage carrying a woman in a plum-colored dress. The woman beckons to Greta, and through the magic of the fog, Greta travels back in time to a mystical, long- gone village. Countless adults warmly recall this book as a favorite from their own childhoods, and now a new generation of readers will delight in this wondrous adventure into the past.
