The sun is out. The birds are singing. It’s a perfect day for tracking fairies. Are you game? Follow our intrepid young narrators as they skip from rock to flower to waterfall, following the clues. Will their search turn up any fairy friends?

Illustrated with photos and art by the fabulous Christa Unzner, THE TIPTOE GUIDE TO TRACKING FAIRIES is a fascinating trip into that magical world that lies just on the other side of nature. You, too, can see the world through fairy-tinted glasses. Won’t you come along?

Text and art work in tandem to create gentle suspense—scenes, such as one in which fairies retrieve a lost slipper just behind the retreating shoes of the searching children, will prompt giggles, and the promise of a fairy encounter is sweetly fulfilled at the end. Publishers Weekly
