This enchantingly illustrated natural history of fairies, compiled
in the 1920s by the botanist Professor Elsie Arbour for her niece,
is now unveiled for readers of today. Featuring a gold
foil-embossed cloth cover, a ribbon marker and sprayed gold edges,

notes detailing the secret life of fairies and their important role
in the natural world. Inside, you will discover the wide and
wonderful array of different species of fairy around the globe and
explore where and how they live. Delight in this hidden world as
you learn all about: The anatomy of a fairy (Land-based fairies
have individual, separated toes, just as humans do. However, many
species of water fairy have webbed feet.) The life cycle of a fairy
(When walking in the heather, be careful of the tiny flutterpillar
of the Wicklow Fairy, decked out in greens and purples.) Clever
fairy camouflage (Reed fairies living in wetlands usually wear
striped clothes to hide among the tall reeds.) Fairies around the
world (Meet the Lily Hopper of sub-Saharan Africa, the Queen Fairy
of New Guinea, the Penguin Fairy of the Antarctic and many more.)
Fairy habitats (Fairies make their homes in all types of places:
woodlands, jungles, deserts, the Poles and even human homes.)
Concluding with a reminder that we must protect the endangered
habitats of fairies, and all other creatures too, this is a book to
be treasured for a lifetime.
