Bonjour!! Est ce quelqu'un pourrait m'aider à corriger mes fautes, svp ?
The story starts with the Dulcie waking up, today, it is her birthday, and it isn’t a day like the others. Indeed, instead of finding his mother and her brother, Dicky close of his bed like each morning, there is Maurice, a young red-headed boy with queer gold-flecked eyes... Dulcie doesn’t seem really anxious, she let herself guide by (? se laisser guider par) Maurice who take off her in the research of the famous wishing tree, Maurice starts by taking a small scale out of his booksatchel, it is enough for him to blow inside it so that it starts to reach the ground since the Dulcie room ( :S ici l’image, c’est qu’il souffle dans une échelle depuis la chambre de Dulcie qui atteind le sol ), thus they can join Alice, Dicky and George. All together, they decide to go off to the tree research, for that, it suffices for Maurice to take small ponies, in which he blows for each one of them. In way, they meet an old man, Egbert, who is able to show them where the tree is located, annoyed by the intrigues of his wife, who throws him a flatiron to him, a rollingpin and an alarm clock as soon as he is speaking with unknowns, he then agrees to show the way to them and goes up with them. They are succeeded to find (? ils sont arrivés à trouver )a tree with white sheets, Dulcie thinks whereas it deals with the wishing tree but according to Egbert it is only a “mellomax”, Dulcie who had never yet seen tree with white leaves, tears off one of these leaves, as soon as she had touched it, it became blue, and everyone tore off a leaf and no one didn’t have a leaf of the same colour. Maurice explains to them that’s the color of everybody’s wishes. Dulcie thinks whereas it acts of the wishing tree, but Egbert affirms the opposite and then knows where the genuine wising tree is, the redhead boy requires to follow him and they recover on the way. Only, George is hungry and thinks that he would like to have a sandwich and suddenly, he finds himself with a sandwich in the hand. All astonished, they put each one to wish food and they obtain what they want. After their picnic, they carry on their way. Only, they are also put to make bad wishes, which delay their adventure: Exodus, the former husband of Alice, left for the war, appears, Egbert disappears, Dicky becomes tiny... but finally they are left there well(? tout finit par s’arranger) and after having crossed the forest, Maurice takes them along to a valley and to arrive close to a river. They find there a tree covered with leaves of thousand different colors, it’s Father Francis, Dulcie asks him where the whising tree with is located, Father Francis answers her that they already found it, it was this tree with white leaves and he asks him thus that with the others to give their leaves to him which they gathered to give them on the tree, because if all the children gather a leaf, there wouldn’t be any leaf and thus other children couldn’t make any more wishes and it would be an selfish wish to keep a leaf of this tree for them. They agree to give again these leaves to him and instead, Father Francis give them each one of his birds: a small blue bird for Dulcie, a small white bird for Dicky, a red-bird for Alice and an oriole for Maurice, the others will not have a bird because they will not be able to look after them. Satisfied with their adventure, they are put on the way of the return, it’s enough to cross the fog.... But Dulcie doesn’t distinguish really anything any more but she can hear a voice, that of her mother, then, she distinguishes her face, she is close to her bed: "Happy birthday!! "She was awaked. Dicky arrived with a gift: a small blue bird...
