Now that the Fairies Have Houses…
…they’ll need something to eat. Beanie’s fairy house (photo to come) turned into a restaurant with seashell plates. Naturally, the girls had to run for their favorite fairy cookbook: Mud Pies and Other Recipes
I’ll add some more fun fairy books later, but right now I’m off to visit the midwife.
I’m back! As promised:
The Complete Book of the Flower Fairies
Twig
A sweet novel about a little girl who makes a fairy house out of an old tomato can.
Fairy Fun: A Child’s Fairyland of Enchanting Projects and Magical Games
Fairy Houses
Ditto for this one: Fairy Island: An Enchanted Tour of the Homes of the Little Folk

Thank you so much! What a treasure to find in my blog feeds!
“Mud Pies” was beloved to me when I was a child.
I have been looking for it for years, both book and title are longlost in mud and muddied memories. I will be ordering it for my two kidlets a.s.a.p.

The cookbook for dolls is too much. I really want to see that in person. Very neat.

Lissa,
You and Alice introduced this book to me way back when. : )
Every now and then, my 8 yr old goes through the house muttering, “Now where’s that cookbook!”
I know exactly which one she’s looking for. : )
