The first half of the 20th century was a golden age of Australian fantasy illustrators and writers, and Pixie O'Harris (1903-1991) was one of the most loved. She illustrated more than 40 fairy books, which sold hundreds of thousands of copies. Her charming woodland and sea creatures, and her appealing fairies captivated generations of children. Every year, she is remembered through the Pixie O'Harris Award, which the Australian Publishing Association gives in recognition of "distinguished and dedicated service to the development and reputation of children's books".For the first time, this lavishly designed gift edition will bring together some of Pixie's most popular works: from the entire story of Pearl Pinkie and Sea Greenie (her first children's book) to poems and stories from The Pixie O'Harris Story Book, The Pixie O'Harris Gift Book and the original Pixie O'Harris Fairy Book. With eight pages of colour plates, and beautifully-detailed black and white vignettes throughout, this book revitalises a classic Australian fantasy writer and illustrator. It introduces Pixie O'Harris to a new generation of readers and re-acquaints many with the cherished stories and illustrations of their childhood.
