Mel, Mikal & the Magic Trees

In the south side of the lovely Aylesbury market town in Buckinghamshire, Mel who had a love for trees was spending the summer holidays with his grandparents and his cousin Mikal. Seated around the breakfast table he vaguely tried to recall a dream he'd had the night before. It was quite bizarre! A tree (well, he thought it was a tree), was trying to chat with him. How could that be! Haunted by the dream, Mel made a wish that the Elm and Silver Birch tree in the garden next door could talk. Little did he know the power of his wish. The universal forces granted it and the trees materialised in his grandparents' dining room, with human features and magical powers to grant any wish that he or Mikal could think of. They had no idea of the adventures ahead, when they set out on their quest to find mango trees in the Gambia and Jamaica. Time travel and a vortex never crossed their minds, but when the trees reverted to their natural state, they had to conclude that it was the best summer holiday adventure ever. Their beloved magic trees vowed to materialise again next summer, and they can't wait for the magic to return. Their wish bag would be full of wishes by then!
