~The Dandelion/Butterglove Family~
Grandfather Wallace Dandelion is always losing things, especially his glasses. He will search the whole house for them, all the time muttering his frustration. Eventually someone will tell him that his glasses are on his head!
Grandmother Olive Dandelion is the only one in her family who has a good memory. Not only can she remember where things are when her family needs them, she remembers what Sylvania was like many years ago and tells stories about her adventures when she was a young girl.
Father Burdock Dandelion, like all of his family, is very forgetful, which is how they lost the twins Lavender and Larkspur all those years ago in the woods.
Mother Angelica Dandelion, because of her bad memory, puts baby Primula on a hand lead when they go out, just to make sure she doesn't lose another baby.
Brother Figwort Dandelion has developed great hearing which comes in very handy when he gets lost! He gets lost a lot, but can always walk toward the sound of his worried parents calling his name.
Sister Aster Dandelion/Beverly Butterglove trails rice behind her wherever she goes, so should she get lost, all she has to do is turn around and follow the trail of rice home.
Baby Primula Dandelion is a happy little baby without a care in the world, after all, she is pampered and worried over by the whole family.
Baby Twins Lavender and Larkspur Dandelion- No one knew how Lavender and Larkspur came to be in the Sylvanian Woods. One day Tamsie Honeybear was out collecting berries, she saw an unusual pile of leaves. When she looked under the pile, there were these two babies, cosily curled up, sound asleep.
