Written by Steve Richardson, author of 'Canlandia' and 'Paisley and the Treehouse Contest', this magical tale will be a rare delight for serious faerie fans, especially those familiar with authentic Celtic faeries and folklore. It's the story of Lavender Blue, a pure-hearted little girl who makes a wish to help her dying friend Rose, and finds herself caught up in the adventure of a lifetime. The faeries lead her through a ritual thousands of years old, where she encounters both good and bad faeries. She quickly discovers that faeries don't mess around, and her journey to save Rose becomes powerfully dark and magically enchanting, with obstacles more reminiscent of the classic tales of the brothers Grimm than the innocent faerie tales more common today.
