Utterly charming and adorable. A very brief, magical-realism type of short story. It was whimsical and touching, a glimpse at a little girl named Celine and her model aeroplane, The Emerald Dragonfly (Ted for short), and how she had a little adventure... It felt wonderfully British, and the writing was magical and full of such zest of imaginative description. Delightful. ^_^
