Many years ago a young artist living in Canada received, out of the blue, a letter from a nine-year-old English girl, Miss Emma Gladstone. Emma had read some books about fairies which the artist had published and she was writing to ask his advice about the little people who she sometimes could see out of the corner of her eye. She wanted to invite the fairies to come and live in her garden, but she did not know how to make contact with them. One day he received a letter from a little girl in far away England, where the fairies live Bound in blocked paper with a printed inset paper label 24 pages plus a 12 page concertina Illustrated throughout and printed in 4 colours throughout Features 5 printed pockets with letters, concertina and fairy money enclosed and a tipped-on leaf letter Printed endpapers Blocked slipcase
