Mr. Verlor, the Ducks, and the Disobedient Folder: A Fun Adventurous Story for Kids Ages 7-12 about Big Feelings - Paperback

What a story has happened on Laurel Street.

This time - with Mr. Verlor.

Mr. Verlor is a careful, polite, and slightly lost man. He has a folder. The folder knows everything: what must be done, what should absolutely not be done, and why laughing is a rather questionable activity. He also has a watch that sometimes runs ahead, sometimes falls behind, and sometimes simply pretends that nothing at all is happening.

But one day the folder stopped cooperating, the watch became completely confused, and two children - along with a cat who understands philosophy almost as well as sour cream - unexpectedly appeared in front of Mr. Verlor.

And so the journey began.

To a place where time is repaired in a tiny magical workshop.

To the Oddfolk Fair, where people celebrate not their successes but their awkward, beautiful mistakes.

To a place where a very important piece of paper may fly away - only to return as a paper airplane.

This is a story about an adventure that begins with disobedient papers and ends with tea, laughter, and one important discovery that each of us must make for ourselves.

Thank you to everyone who reads and believes in gentle miracles. May you always have a place where you don't have to be on time, where you can laugh wholeheartedly, and where you can create something new.

And if, after reading, you feel like smiling, or wondering, or suddenly thinking, "Oh well - whatever happens, happens," then the magic of Laurel Street has touched you too.
