5.0 out of 5 stars Every little (and big!) girl should have this book...., 30 Aug 2002
By sueb "sueb34" (Leeds, England) - See all my reviews
This is quite the most magical little fairy book I have seen in years. A small volume with hugely enjoyable illustrations by one of the best illustrators of children's literature ever.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, Brilliant, Brilliant, 12 Feb 2002
By A Customer
This book is soooooo good.
I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recomend it to anyone.
It contains stories, poems and even a spell to see fairies.
It is ideal for children, and adults with a good immagination and has such beautiful illustrations.
It is a book to treasure and a delight to read.

3.0 out of 5 stars elves and faeries, 22 Feb 2004
By Miss A L Watkins (Hersham, Surrey United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This is an adorable little book. The stories and illustrations (mostly in colour) are lovely but if you're looking for a lot of information on faeries/fairies and elves then this book isn't really for you. It covers poems, stories and fairy and elf folklore but is more like a fantasy/storybook than a book about sightings or experiences. It's not particularly long but i enjoyed it all the same.
