'There is a magical world that exists between one blink of the eye and the next. If you were able to see into this realm you would be astonished at the various faeries you'd find.

'Jacqui Grantford gives us more than a glimpse of these wonderful creatures in a truly beautiful picture book with rhyming text. Her faeries are a strange and diverse collection from the comical to the beautiful and bizarre. Every picture is so rich in glorious detail that readers will want to pore over this book for hours.

'This is a very different fairy book.' (Production summary)
