Alice has a nose for trouble, but luckily she's a fairy--a Temporary Fairy. She has a magic wand, fairy wings, and a blanket, all of which she uses to disappear, to fly, to transform her dad into a horse, and to turn his cookies into her own! There are still a few things Alice needs to learn to become a Permanent Fairy, like how to float her dog on the ceiling and make her clothes put themselves away, but she's working on it--sort of. Here's an endearing, funny story about a girl and her magical imagination, sure to delight every fairy in training!

Written by a former member of the Monty Python troupe, this satire of the fairy picture hoax of 1895 is riotously witty, visually extraordinary and wildly original. Illustrations.

For use in schools and libraries only. When Jack Frost's goblins steal the magic tiaras from the princess fairies, Rachel and Kirsty must try to retrieve them and save Fairyland.
