When I was a little girl, I read a book about the 'Cloud Kings and Queens'. Now there were two types of Kingdoms, one which was the good and happy Kingdom, other dark and gloomy. Then one day, the gloomy cloud kingdom gets a 'bit of sunshine' from the good kingdom and from ugly they become cheerful and good as well. One line which I memorized from that story book ( I used to skip to it) was, "the Gray Cloud Queen so ugly and mean, all shriveled and shrunk like an overcooked bean. Ears like and elephant, nose like a beak, when she walks by, all her bones creak". Does anyone out there have any recollection of this book? I would love to find out it's title or author. For some reason, I feel I have to have it. Thanks to all that answer!

i might want to side with the "solid," and bypass heavy on the quadruplets of air, fireplace, water and earth to strive against Ivy and whoever might want to be on her side. i do not comprehend who all the acquaintances are, so can't say who's solid or who's evil. I merely comprehend that the elements are solid. Quadruplets who're really the elements will be a stong stress to guard and coach Amethyst on the proper of the tale. also, i imagine it really is a superb attempt through a 13 12 months-previous, and also you have to be proud... you're a author!
