This charming book serves as a fairy spotters guide, full of facts and fancies about these most elusive creatures. Beautiful illustrations share details of fairy clothing and accessories as well as that all important fairy dust! Superstitions, traditions and fairy magic are also explained in simple but engaging language.

The illustrations are detailed, using a pretty pastel palette. There is lots happening on every page, which are crammed with little facts, labelled illustrations, notes, and short paragraphs. The words and illustrations work together and echo the layout of traditional non-fiction nature guidebooks. Extra items that add to the reading experience can be found at the front and the back of the book. At the front is an envelope filled with little cardboard fairies and woodland creatures, at the back, readers will find a charming pop-up fairy tree.

This is a fun book to read together with a younger child, while a confident reader will be keen to carry the book to the garden or the park to help them find a fairy! Overall, a delightful, interactive book for any child who loves fairies.
