With a pinch of pixie dust, professional faerie and storyteller Tonya Robin Batt presents an anthology that introduces a variety of faerie folk through stories, poems, and snippets of lore. Illustrations.
I play story cd's in my car while I am driving the kids around. This was really great. My only complaint is that it was too short. For a car ride, that is a problem. For sitting around in your home looking at bedtime books, it is not a problem. From now on, I will try to find more of the books with two cd's, like the Shakespeare Stories from Barefoot Books.
So fun!

I bought this for my 7 year old daughter for Christmas and she loves it. Despite the lovely voice of the woman on the CD, she still even enjoys it if I read the stories. She listens to it almost every night while falling asleep. Fabulous stories and perfect vocalist.
Extraodinary!

We are incredibly lucky to have the wonderful and extraodinary Tanya Batt living near us, she has a story telling shop in town and knowing her was the reason we bought this book - and then went out and bought ALL her books, and all her tapes and everything she has ever published. Tanya Batt has the most dynamic imagination and interpretation of stories, and these stories are an absolute must for my children (age 3 and 4) Tanya's use of language come's more from the oral story telling tradition so her stories are best read out loud - perfect for reading out to littlies. They are richly illustrated and there is plenty to talk about in each of the pictures. These stories will be suitable for children of all ages, her stories are multi-layered - there are subtle levels to them which adults will also enjoy. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!!
