Eva, a golden-haired girl who loves fairy tales, wanders down to the old mill-pond one summer afternoon and finds her way into Shadow-Land. There she meets Aster, receives the gift of a fountain and sets out on a long search through enchanted places, past a door in the wall to the Valley of Rest, mending what is broken and rescuing a little green bird.
