Lyn and the Fuzzy

By James Rice

In this story by children's book illustrator and author James Rice, an
ordinary child named Lyn is bored by the prospect of another slow day with
nothing to do, and wanders into a strange pet shop where he buys a mysterious "fuzzy
seed". In the woods behind his house the fuzzy seed grows from a downy
flower into a friendly giant of a creature that becomes the boy's friend and
constant companion, playing games and walking in the woods.

The pet shop owner had warned Lyn, "Beware the March winds, and the
cold winds", and sure enough when the seasons change and the wind begins to
blow, Fuzzy grows smaller and smaller until he disappears. Lyn misses his
friend, but the great Fuzzy has taught him much about friendship and the special
gift of youthful dreams that come but once.
