Fairy Houses

Fairy Houses by Tracy Kane 2001

Kristen’s family is on vacation and they surprise her by revealing a human made village for fairies. She becomes the architect of her own magical home for the fairies, and wishes more than anything to meet them. She finally gets what she wishes for, because she respected and cared for the forest and it's occupants.

Kane’s illustrations are dreamlike and magical which is just what the storyline warrants. The natural world will be viewed differently after reading this story, and a fairy village will most likely appear in your backyard very soon.

Appropriate for ages 4-8
