I'm not sure that her name is enough to count as a flower fairy, but I did love that story.<br /><br />Ah, Cecily Mary Barker!

It's gorgeous!! <br /><br />My favorite flower fairy actually slept in flowers, and in the story (which is actually sad) he helps out some people in danger. <br />Sorry, I can't remember the name, but I'll tell you when I do! :)<br /><br />Also I have never heard of Cecily Mary Baker, another book I shall have to check out from the library. :)Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14814840750991556084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-69908255564610499482012-07-31T09:46:01.213-04:002012-07-31T09:46:01.213-04:00Oh, Cecily Mary Barker!

My sister owns a collection of Barker's work, with fairies from each of the four seasons; it's not only lovely, but extremely helpful for studying the English countryside. The Oak Fairy and the Wild Rose Fairy remain some of my favorites.<br /><br />English countryside reminded me - do you own any of the "Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady" books by Edith Holden? Her notes on wildlife and her illustrations are exquisite.Abigail Hartmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02753785611813086527noreply@blogger.com
