Product Description
The year is 1920, and a young (and as yet unpublished) Cicely Mary Barker is staying at a friends cottage in Storrington, West Sussex, for the spring and summer. Over the months as she sketches and writes in the gardens and grounds, she starts to suspect the presence of fairies in the flowers all around her. Her journal reveals her thoughts and musings, and includes sketches, research into general fairy folklore and many more extra items, as she searches for evidence that the Flower Fairies exist! Although a fictional account, the Flower Fairies Journal ties in with real dates and events, uses Cicely Mary Barkers sketches, artwork and samples from her poems, and contains many beautiful design elements from the 1920s and 1930s.
