Product Description
Cicely Mary Barker's original Flower Fairies books, first published in the 1920s, have been known and loved by generations. Like the pre-Raphaelite painters whom she so admired, Barker believed in re-creating the beauty of nature in art and drawing from life. Her Flower Fairies watercolors have a unique combination of naturalism and fantasy that no imitators have matched.
Each of Barker's four seasonal books features poems and full-color illustrations of at least 19 flowers that bloom during a particular season.

 Wonderful Addition to Library July 25, 2005
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Cicely Mary Barker and all of her books are a delightful addition to our library! The poems are beautiful, inviting and educational. The art is magical. It brings you into the piece. I find myself lingering on each page to study each fairy and flower in great detail. My 4 year old loves to hear me read the poems and she enjoys looking at the pictures. She has the coloring book.

The songs of the fairies is wonderful. It's classic children's literature. The poems have a delicate charm. The artwork is beautiful.
