Synopsis
When in 1923 Cicely Mary Barker created the first of the Flower Fairy books, “Flower Fairies of the Spring”, she could have had no idea of the popularity they would enjoy. This volume brings together Barker’s fairy illustrations and poems from the eight original Flower Fairy books. The Complete Book of the Flower Fairies has been beautifully transformed with luxurious finishes including a cloth cover with foil stamping, pearlized pink edged pages, a ribbon, and a gorgeous sturdy slipcase with foil stamping. Twenty years after her death, Cicely Mary Barker’s originality and skill as an artist continues to charm and delight readers in this complete compilation of all her world-famous fairy illustrations and poems.”
