Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

In this delightful book of poems, first published in 1920, Rose Fyleman scattered her thoughts into the world like so much dandelion fuzz. And here they have landed, over a century later, in your lap. Lucky, lucky you. I trust the faithful fairies will point from their world to things that are of value in our world.

It snot so very, very far away; You pass the gardeners shed and you just keep straight ahead I do so hope theyve really come to stay. There sa little wood, with moss in it and beetles, And a little stream that quietly runs through; You wouldnt think theyd dare to come merrymaking there Well, they do. There are fairies at the bottom of our garden! They often have a dance on summer nights; The butterflies and bees make a lovely little breeze, And the rabbits stand about and hold the lights.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.

Rose Amy Fyleman (1877-1957) was an English writer and poet, noted for her works on the fairy folk, for children. Her poem There Are Fairies at the Bottom of Our Garden was set to music by English composer Liza Lehmann. Her Christmas carol Lift Your Hidden Faces, set to a French carol tune, was included in the Anglican hymnal Songs of Praise (1931) as well as in the Hutterian Brotherhood's Songs of Light (1977). She was born in Nottingham, the third child of John Feilmann and his wife, Emilie, nee Loewenstein, who was of Russian extraction. Her father was in the lace trade, and the family were Jews who had come from Jever in Oldenburg in Germany in 1860. Her other works include: Fairies and Chimneys (1918), The Sunny Book (1918), The Fairy Queen (1919), The Fairy Flute (1921), The Rainbow Cat and Other Stories (1922), The Rose Fyleman Fairy Book (1923), Eight Little Plays for Children (1924), The Adventure Club (1925) and Forty Good Morning Tales (1926).
