Throughout the book, their adventures and interactions depict the innocence of childhood alongside the beauty of the natural world. The opening of the story introduces
us to Milly, a sensible six-year-old, and her younger brother Olly, who is nearly five. Their mother calls them into the drawing-room, where they learn about a special family trip to the mountains, a journey they are eager to undertake despite Olly's initial preference for the sea.
