Flower Fairies of the Trees
Cicely Mary Barker
Hardcover
(Warne, June 1, 2002)
Frederick Warne is pleased to announce brand-new editions of the 8 classic Flower Fairies titles, with all of Barker's original artwork and poetry included. These works offer a nostalgic look into the Romantic Age, each illustration suggesting that beyond the natural world so truthfully depicted in Barker's paintings there might co-exist another, just barely visible, world of the fairies. These four titles (Flower Fairies of the Trees, Flower Fairies of the Garden, Flower Fairies of the Wayside, and A Flower Fairy Alphabet) complete the original collection of Barker's Flower Fairies books. Each book features Barker's poems and full-color illustrations of at least 19 different Flower Fairies.
