Once upon a time, there was a little girl called Tiger-Lily. She lived on a tiny, remote, wild and beautiful tropical island in the gleaming Pacific Ocean. She had a mother called Kiri, a father called Luc and little twin sisters who were 5. Their names were Honey and Lou.
Tiger-Lily was 11 years old. She had soft, silky, chocolate coloured hair that shimmered whenever it caught the sunlight. She let it flow around her shoulders, but used a colourful pink lei (tropical flower) to sweep it gracefully back from her deep blue eyes. She dressed in handmade slip-on white cotton dresses that had been exquisitly embroidered with scenes from all of Tiger-Lily's favourite legends and tales. She usually went barefoot, skipping lightly over golden sands, but sometimes she slipped on dark leather sandals for longer trekks.
In her spare time, Tiger-Lily loved to swim through the glitteringly warm ocean that surrounded her home. She was a sleek, graceful swimmer who darted through the many shoals of tropical fish. She also had to stay home sometimes to keep Honey and Lou out of mischief!!
Tiger-Lily was a spirited, graceful, friendly, vivacious, bubbly, warm girl who everyone loved.
Watch out for more adventures of Tiger-Lily soon, I hope this introduction has given you a taste of things to come.
