What's a day with Neslo like?


 Neslo lives in a small town neighboring an enchanted forest. Armed with the adventurous spirit of childhood and a curious eye for exploring the strange and the new, Neslo lives day to day as a kid encountering the weird and whimsical and uncovering extraordinary nonsense underneath what looks to be ordinary town.

 A normal hike in the mountains may uncover a secret tunnel leading to treasure hidden by a gang of bears. What's a boy to do when you find yourself fleeing for survival after looting a bunch of large, armed bears?

 A morning with an empty fridge may require playing a hand of cards against an irresponsible bird for his nest of eggs. Just make sure other egg-eating animals don't learn about this game, especially the short-fused mother bird.

 When Neslo misses the school bus, all he needs is to be early enough to catch that mail-delivering ostrich and commandeer a ride to school. It'll be alright if they take the shortcut through the hungry cactus wolf territory. Of course, it'd be easier if the ostrich approved of a kid riding it against its will.

 But even without any magic talking animals, an ordinary game of baseball with another kid from the neighborhood can have its surprises. A normal kid could expect an accident such as breaking a few windows, but what should Neslo do when he slugs the ball straight through the sun and breaks the world's main source of light?

 For Neslo, it’s a familiar but foreign world to be discovered and used to his fun and benefit.
