Some of the entries in book were written and illustrated in 1916, and later there were more additions for a 1985 edition. This book features some of the beautiful illustrations of fairies by Ida Rentoul Outhwaite, 1888 - 1960. It is a fairly compact book of 59 pages and has illustrations on many of the pages. The fairies in this book are nothing like the modern Disney fairies - but if you like the fairies of the early 20th century you would like this book.

This is a beautiful little book. The illustrations... they seem to be alive. Each little face has its own emotion. Some of the paintings are dusky and mysterious, some full of sunshine, but each is beautiful. They illustrate a selection of haunting and lovely poems by various famous authors. Witches, fairies, sprites, imps, goblins... both adults and children could spend hours poring over this little volume.
