“The center of the earth?” Rapunzel asks, looking interested. “I’ve read a few learning books since I got here. Well, on my phone. My friend Peter showed me how to find books on my phone, isn’t that amazing? Anyway, one of them said that the middle of the earth has a molten core. So I don’t know why anyone would journey to the center of it.”

She reaches out to take the book from Luke’s hands, opening the cover to read the flap with an interested expression. “But it does sound like quite an adventure.”

Rapunzel finishes the summary and then looks up at Luke with a slightly pleading expression. “Is it okay if I start to read it now?”
