Very small paperback.

Very small paperback

Adorable

First try with this book resulted in a cover that looked like it had been run over by a forklift. The exchange book was sent out within 12 hours and arrived a few days later as perfect as could be. The book is small (it is for fairies), but we bought it as a lyric book for the flower fairy CD that has all the poems set to music. With both the CD and book, our girls and boy LOVE going on long trips because they all get a chance to read and sing along... not that they don't have the music memorized already; we are on our second CD because the first was scratched up from normal play after 4 years of daily use in the car.

sweet

the art is wonderful, the poems are sweet. i wish fairies were real! the kids really enjoy this book. we now are trying to plant as many of these flowers as we can!

Simply magical!

Though I bought the entire series of the "Flower Fairies" books for my preschooler, I found myself as enraptured as she was, especially with the delightful and gorgeous illustrations, which are also extremely detailed. Painted in lush and vibrant watercolors, the depictions of the various fairies and the plants are so life-like that they appear to leap off the page. The poems also have a magical, otherworldly quality about them, transporting readers to a magical realm. Readers, both young and old will love these series of books. Highly recommended!

Enchanting

My twin girls are now 4 1/2 years old and adore this book and its companion CD. One of them falls asleep to the music every night. They know all the words to each song (they are even beginning to understand the words they are singing, which has enhanced their vocabulary in beautiful ways. I highly recommmend this book and CD!!! hannahandgracesmom
