Candice brought the book to her nose--it somehow still carried that wonderful new-book smell. She cracked it open, and a piece of paper fell out and floated to the ground.Candice picked it up, thinking it was just a random sheet that had been used as a bookmark long ago. Then she saw a small note written on the back of the paper. Find the path. Solve the puzzle.It was her grandmother’s handwriting--swirling loops in dark blue ink.Candice unfolded the paper and hesitated. The letter was addressed to her grandmotherit seemed intrusive to read it. She almost placed it back between the pages of the book.Almost.But she was a reader. Readers read.And so, Candice read the letter.
