    [synopsis] => This gentle fantasy about Olivias visits to her New World of Avalon, accessed through her grandfathers picture of a robin which hangs on her bedroom wall, is a childrens story. Yet, it is much more than what is normally implied by that description.

	The robin comes to life and calls her through the picture frame into Avalon where she is crowned queen over the forest birds and animals. Olivia explores their world and helps save them from various disasters. But she also grows up. In the first Avalon adventure she is a child, but by the
 final one she is sixteen, a teenager tracing her individual path as the slightly lonely, youngest child in her real-life family. More than that, she is a teenager dealing with the loss of the beloved granddad who was the person who understood her best. Avalons lesson about the 
continuation of their relationship, beyond death, is the theme of Olivias last adventure.

	Avalon Dayshas overtones of the writing of the Austrian novelist, poet, and painter Adalbert Stifter (1805-1868). Stifters concern for conservation and environmental issues is increasingly relevant today.
