Gardening With Fairies!
Whether you believe in delightful, mischevious fairies or are just in love with the little animals who may appreciate a little shelter in your garden, building Fairy Houses is becoming very popular! We love the fact that kids and adults get to build these charming houses together and let their imaginations run free! You can make traditional houses using nothing but things you find in nature, or build something elaborately decorated and play with your own fairies. Just for Spring we have compiled a list of books, and a DVD on building these little treasures. But we all love a good storybook so we have listed some our favorites here as well. A few toys and dolls for the fairy lover and suddenly you are surrounded with inspiration and great ideas to build your own fairy houses!
NOTE: If you venture into the house building fun, send us a picture - we would love to post your pictures and thoughts on your fairy adventures!

Fairy Island
Laura C. Martin and Cameron Martin
1579124550 Hardcover
Noted nature crafter Laura Martin has created a fantasy for fairy-lovers. Its concept involves a botanist, Christine Newkirk, who has discovered five tiny houses on a magical island, all made from natural materials on a perfect fairy scale—the houses are no more than 18 inches high, beds are 2 x 3 inches, shoes are 1 inch long. She documents her finds in a field diary she is keeping for her granddaughter.
The woodland cottage is filled with bent twig furniture. The Japanese house displays bamboo slippers outside the door, and the beach house has a minute bath tiled with seashells. Each spread is filled with photos and drawings of these tiny objects, all identified with their botanical names.
To leaf through these pages is to enter another world and dwell in it—the world of fantasy that has fascinated people through the ages.

The Great Encyclopedia Of Faeries
Pierre Dubois
0684869578 Hardcover
They are known as the Little People, the Beautiful Maidens, the Godmothers, the Blessed, the Ageless Ones...for it is dangerous to say the name "faeries" without good reason. Ruling over earth, air, fire, and water, they protect forests, animals, and children, and in their hands lie the dreamy souls of all creatures.
The faeries rose from the mist long, long ago, in the time of the Golden Age -- well before the creation of gods and men. In their magical fancy they created the singing grasses and the reflection of springs, the music of legends and the far side of the mirror. From the Valkyries of Valhalla to the Babouchka of Russia, Banshees, Dryads, Bogey Beasts, Sirens, and their ilk populate the imaginations and the forests of every culture.
In this comprehensive celebration of the world of faery, renowned French elficologist Pierre Dubois describes the extraordinary richness of the faery kingdom, presenting dozens and dozens of lushly illustrated entries on the most powerful and enchanting denizens of this magical world. Dubois provides readers with authoritative information detailing the customs, habitat, and activities of these Little People. Faery Godmothers, we discover, were originally tall, distinguished, and rather severe; only recently have they taken up the magic wands and cheerful smiles we know them for today. We learn that the favorite foods of the Arthurian faery Viviane are the blackberries that surround Merlin's tomb. And among the customs and activities of the Bogey Beast, the prime goal is indeed to scare little children...if only for their protection.
Dubois's entrancing descriptions are accompanied by Roland and Claudine Sabatier's marvelous illustrations, which depict the appearance of the faeries, the places where they are found, and their familiar objects. Without revealing any faery confidences (which must never be betrayed), Dubois and the Sabatiers have created a comprehensive and utterly enchanting survey of a magical world as old as time.
