Rip Van Barley
(based on the Washington Irving story)
Sixteen-year old
Barley is depressed, despondent, despairing and doesn't want to get out of bed in the morning.
Barley wants to stay in bed under the blankets forever - where it's warm, soft, safe and cozy.
In fact, he doesn't even want to wake up!
"Be careful what you wish for..."
Or is it forty years too late?
