Fairies, elves, mermaids and water-babies inhabit the magical world created by Shirley Barber

Fairies are very shy creatures and prefer to keep themselves hidden from human eyes

If you look very carefully, you may see a fairy in your garden

The world of fairies is all around us, though we seldom notice it
