It's a rainy day, but you can always have fun inside. In this story, Sophie decides that it's time to play a hiding game. As you'll find out, the rules are very simple, but figuring out the clues and finding the prize before the other team does--now that's quite a challenge.
This story was inspired by a memory of a children's book I read when I was a kid. I can't remember the title, but it was a story of children in a village (somewhere in Scandinavia I believe). These kids spent all their time playing outdoors, building forts and inventing games. One of these games was to hide a treasured object and give the other team a difficult and perplexing clue about where to find it. I'm guessing it was probably something by Astrid Lindgren, but I can't for the life of me remember the name of the book.
