Summary

So many of us are in the middle of a long fog right now, and it can be hard to deal with the uncertainty of it. Oakley, the chipmunk in this story, encounters his first long fog and learns to find the magic in it. I hope you enjoy this one! This story comes from a collaboration with David of Sparkle Stories, and you will hear both of our voices.
