Flower Fairies

First published in the 1920s, the "Flower Fairy" books by Cicely Mary Barker have delighted generations of children with their exquisite illustrations and engaging poems. In "Flower Fairies of the Spring" we meet twenty charming fairies including the Bluebell Fairy, the Daffodil Fairy and the Primrose Fairy. Each fairy encourages us to look at nature and learn to appreciate the true beauty and wonder of the 'ordinary' world around us.

Dulcie, a young woman aged 15, is living with her family in London. She remembers her childhood encounters with the fairies, but she has not seen them for a long time, and this saddens her greatly. She begins to investigate where the fairies have gone, little knowing that they are all around her.
