Edmund grows up distant but he grows up kind, and his hair is like spun yellow gold, and messy, like a thatch of straw. He is strong and able and he loves the wolf but he loves his father too.<\/p>\n
One day he is playing a game with the wolf. He is playing hide and seek. He has hidden himself in a wardrobe, and he thinks this very clever, because the wolf cannot quite reach. Even if it knows<\/em> that he is there, all Edmund must do is stay very still and very quiet and the wolf can never prove its win at hide and seek.<\/p>\n The wolf becomes irritated and then vexed.<\/p>\n It stretches its mouth. It closes it and opens it, as wide as it is allowed. Then it huffs. It puffs. It blows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Edmund grows up distant but he grows up kind, and his hair is like spun yellow gold, and messy, like a thatch of straw.
