flower fairies of the garden, cicely mary barker (1944)





















Where?

Where are the fairies?

Where can we find them?

We've seen the fairy-rings
They leave behind them!

When they have danced all night,

Where do they go?

Lark, in the sky above,
Say, do you know?

It is a secret

No one is telling?

Why, in your garden
Surely they're dwelling!


No need for journeying,

Seeking afar:

Where there are flowers,
There fairies are!




another childhood fave. i remember reading it over and over again.
filled with the most beautiful, scientifically detailed illustrations.

a must-have in every child's library!

mais um livro que marcou a minha infância. lembro-me de o ler vezes e vezes sem conta. é um livro recheado de ilustrações magníficas e com pormenores de desenho científico.

obrigatório na biblioteca de qualquer criança!
