Books with author Rose Fyleman

At a market, a fairy purchases riches found in nature. Then releases them for their own good or the good of others. A different season plays out with each stanza of Fyleman’s verse. Visually exquisite, this is a story to be savored by both parents and children, and is a great book to be shared in preschool story time. "The artist has created a fairy-world of beauty with animals, plants, reptiles and small details making each double-page spread a breathtaking scene. . . luminous." —Publishers Weekly"What makes this picture book exceptional are the exquisite illustrations." —School Library Journal

Few are those who do not recognise the phrase 'There are fairies at the bottom of our garden', but few are those who will recall the author, Rose Fyleman. This collection was first published in 1923, with marvellous illustrations by Hilda T Miller. Rose Fyleman understood the role of fairies in childhood, and in those of us who can still think like a child.

The Rainbow Cat is not in the least like any cat you have ever seen. You see, it is a fairy cat, so it rather had to be different. It’s outward appearance is simply magical, if not somewhat unusual. You see it had a violet nose, indigo eyes, pale blue ears, green front legs, a yellow body, orange back legs and a red tail. In fact, it was coloured with all the colours of the rainbow, and so was known as the Rainbow Cat. Of course, it had to live in Fairyland (well where else would you find a Rainbow Cat?) and it had all sorts of really strange adventures. In this book I am going to tell you some of them, and I think you will agree that it really had a very exciting and breathtaking time.What were these adventures you ask? Well, you will have to download this book and find out for yourself!-------Rose Amy Fyleman (1877-1957) was an English writer and poet, noted for her works on the fairy folk, for children.===================KEYWORDS/TAGS: The Rainbow cat, adventures, baker, banquet, beautiful, bottom, bramble-bush, castle, Cat, Chief, children, daughter, fairies, fairy, Fairy Giant, Fairyland, flowers, frightened, gentleman, giant, giantess, gold, golden, Golden-bright, hawthorn, King, kingdom, ladies, laughter, magic horse, magic moon, mandolin, Marigold, marriage, Mellidora, palace, prince, Princess, Queen, Rainbow, river, Rondel, schoolmaster, silver, sunshine, Tree-goblins, valley, wicked witch, wife, wizard, rose fyleman,
