The year is 1920, and a young (and as yet unpublished) Cicely Mary Barker is staying at a friend's cottage in Storrington, West Sussex, for the spring and summer. Over the months as she sketches and writes in the gardens and grounds, she starts to suspect the presence of fairies in the flowers all around her. Her journal reveals her thoughts and musings, and includes sketches, research into general fairy folklore and many more extra items, as she searches for evidence that the Flower Fairies exist! Although a fictional account, the Flower Fairies Journal ties in with real dates and events, uses Cicely Mary Barker's sketches, artwork and samples from her poems, and contains many beautiful design elements from the 1920's and 1930's.

When Lily climbs out of her flower for the very first time, she is keen to explore and make friends, but where to start? As she glances around she spies a special poem, written on a leafy scroll, offering clues to help her explore Flower Fairyland and reach the Secret Garden. Flutter with her as she finds new friends to help her solve the riddles and travel with her through the enchanted door to the most beautiful place in all Flower Fairyland. This beautiful gift book contains different pop-ups on each spread.

Using clever disguises, fairies live and hide in treetops, forests, gardens, marshes, and hedgerows.

An anthology of five previously published fairy stories, enhanced with illustrations of each featured fairy in their own special fairy surroundings, includes "Lavendar's Mid-Summer Mixup" and "Buttercup and the Fairy Gold."

In this follow up to the hugely successful Fairyopolis (the New York Times bestseller), our narrator is Dulcie, the little girl who Cicely befriends in Fairyopolis. The year is 1933 and Dulcie, now 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 as she writes! Her journal details her correspondence and contact with her friend and advisor Cicely, as well as her own thoughts, research and investigation into where the fairies have gone. And at the end of her book, on the eve of her 16th birthday, the fairies allow Dulcie to behold a truly magical sight . . .

This beautiful note book, scented with the sweet smell of heliotrope and decorated with Flower Fairies, is the perfect place to record special thoughts.
