This is what faeries are really about…Take another visit to fairyland, via this sister volume to Maxine Gadd’s Faeries and Other Fantastical Folk—a volume that has already reprinted three times. Artist Ed Hicks demonstrates his facility with the genre in a charming, beautifully produced look at these eternally popular and magical beings. His pastel paintings evoke a luminous and lovely world, all complemented by Dee Stotts’ gentle, mysterious verse. Meet the Night Fairy with her long ears and purple wings; Ebrilla the Tree Fairy, resting on a branch amid pink petals; the Fairy of Creativity, sitting on a book and waving her wand over tubes of paint; and many other unique creatures.
