Book Reviews of Fairyopolis: A Flower Fairies Journal
Book Review: Wonderful book for fans of Cicely Mary Barker's fairy illustrations
Summary: 5 Stars
Both my 3.5 year-old daughter and I are fans of all things fairy and I have been collecting books on the subject for quite some time. "Fairyopolis: A Flower Fairies Journal" is based on a journal kept by Cicely Mary Barker. It is filled with delightful 'treasures' - black and white photographs, reproductions of vintage postcards, a map of Sussex, lift-the-flap features, a field guide to fairies, letters, little booklets ["A dictionary of fairy trees", "Tales of Grateful and Helpful Fairies"] sprinklings of "fairy dust", and of course the gorgeous illustrations of fairy folk in all their delightful finery.
This book is pure delight from the first magical page - it enables one to wander amongst the pages, perusing the beautiful artwork as well as the captivating text [though written in a bit hard to decipher cursive text] and the adventure ends with a wonderful surprise at the end of the book!
I found this book to be a great way to cultivate the love of reading and books in my little one - she flips through these pages at least once a day and it's a favorite request for bedtime reading. We also own "How to Find Flower Fairies" which is simply one of the most beautiful pop-up books on fairies based on Cicely Mary Barker's artwork, and also the sequel to Fairyopolis titled "Return to Fairyopolis" which is not my favorite of the series, but would still delight fans. All in all, highly recommended for fans of fairies and Cicely Mary Barker!
