Billy had a pedal car, which his uncle Sam had given him for his birthday. One day, Billy drove to the woods, where he met a brownie. The brownie said, “The bus must have been late. The brown rabbit drives it.” Billy said, “Come into my pedal car.” The brownie said, “You are so kind.”
Billy asked, “Where do you want me to take you?” The brownie said, “To the market for fairy folk, please.” Billy said, “Certainly,” and drove happily.
When they got there, it was just as the brownie had said. There were elves, goblins, pixies, and one pig with a shopping basket. Billy had never been there before. It was a magical place.
The brownie reminded him, “Park it over at the milk shop.” Billy did as he was told. He was surprised to see an old man keeping the milk shop. His cow had people milk her for themselves and pay her. Billy thanked the old man for the milk, and the old man thanked him back.
The brownie asked the old man, “Where is the cake and shoe shop?” The old man pointed and said, “Just follow that path.” The brownie and Billy did so. They met the brown rabbit in the cake shop. He told them his watch had gone wrong, and that he was late for his bus. The brownie bought a cake, and then bought some laces for his shoes in the shoe shop. “There’s a bit of magic in these,” the brownie said happily.
On the way home, the brownie pressed the horn. Honk, honk, went the car horn. The brownie gave Billy some sweets, which he had bought with his pocket money. Billy thanked him. The brownie said, “You’re welcome.”
They said goodbye to each other. The brownie said, “In two years’ time, don’t forget to beep your horn when you meet me in the woods.” Billy promised he would. He then told his mum about his adventure. She was amazed and delighted. She said, “What a lucky boy! Look, toffees and mints! What a kind brownie. Guess what years gone by Billy was a middle aged man the brownie now an elderly brownie who didn’t recognize Billy at all the end
