Instead of helping Lucy find her way home, Petalwink sees the opportunity for making a new friend. Petalwink learns through trial and error, however, that friendships can’t be forced, and the best way to have a friend is to be a friend.This is a sweet, encouraging tale of true friendship, humility, and loyalty, featuring rich, fanciful watercolor illustrations. Readers will be intrigued by the contrast between Petalwink's whimsical fairy world and Lucy’s human world as they are inspired to learn how to have and be a true friend. This book features a map from Lucy’s house to Newman Forest! (Compare this map with the map of Newman Forest in “Petalwink Comes in Second.”)The children’s book series Good Things Come on Tiny Wings: The Adventures of Petalwink the Fairy® written in rhyme and illustrated by Angela Sage Larsen chronicles Petalwink’s journey of self-discovery through realizing the value of her own talents, her self-worth, and the confidence that comes in being generous to others.
