Fairyopolis
Cicely Mary Barker
"I bought this book to give to one of my cousins, who really loves fairies, and magic, and loves doing magic tricks, and loves anything to do with unicorns and things like that. It's the story of a woman who's a caretaker for a friend's estate in England, and over the course of house sitting, she discovers that there're fairies around. I like the fact that it takes place in England - I think in the 1920s. So it's a very, sort of, nostalgic piece, and I think it's a kind of book that many grandmothers would enjoy sharing with young granddaughters. It's a little bit sugary, so I think if a person has a little bit more of an edge to them, they probably would not like this book.
I would give Fairyopolos about two and a half stars out of five. I think it's a great book for young girls. It won't be the kind of book that I think will last and endure, you know, into the next generation."
