Learn all about the different characters from the Faraway Tree books. In the beginning I will introduce only the main 9 or 10 characters, but also a description of some of the people from the strange lands up in the clouds will soon appear. If you have some good information, comments, or maybe your own description of some of the folks, you are welcome to mail them to me.

FOOD
In this section you can learn all you ever wanted to know about the food and candy the children and their friends try. This section is under development, but already you can learn about POP bicuits...Any help is always welcome. You can send them to me on webmaster@the-farawaytree.com
POP Biscuits
These wonderful biscuits are first heard about in the very first book of the Faraway Tree, namely “the Enchanted Wood”. The children have just discovered the Faraway Tree and decide to climb it, to see what is at the top.
When they come to Silky's place she brings out a tin of them and apparently they were lovely. As soon as you bit them they went POP and you suddenly found your mouth filled with new honey from the middle of the biscuits.
Fanny took 7, one after the other because she was greedy.
The next “victim” to try out these treats is their cousin Dick. He tries them out for the first time in The Magic of the Faraway Tree, and he likes them.
POP BISCUITS are normally made by Silky. She bakes them, and they are ready to be eaten at once.
Hot Cold Goodies
The children and their friend taste these goodies in "the Folk of the Faraway Tree". They are most marvelous and was bought by Moon Face of a which from the Land of Marvels.
When you eat or suck them they start out by beeing normal tempature, but as you continue to suck, they suddently get very hot. At the wink of an eye they turn cold. Suddenly they are almost to cold to have in your mouth. They then turn warm again
They look like oversized chokolates. The goodies are covered in chokolate, and when you suck deeper into them you get to a part that seems like ice cream
