My Thoughts
The Tiptoe Guide to Tracking Fairies is such a delightful book for kids and adults alike. Those who love fairies will truly enjoy reading this book with a little one, and sharing with them the wonder and fantastical element of fairies. The artwork is absolutely beautiful, and enhances the book with everything fairy dust could imagine.

The author sends the kids off on a backyard adventure that will have them looking for the elusive little fairies who may be living nearby – if one only cares enough to look. This encourages them to get out in nature and also be kids and have fun.

This is a perfect children’s book about fairies, and I highly recommend it!
