description: It's nearly midnight, and there's still a thousand pearls to be sewn on the Fairy Queen's dress. Eavesdrop on Blossom, the Royal Dressmaker, and her assistants as they amuse themselves with their favorite stories. The charm of The Real Fairy Book lies as much in its collusion with the reader, who is allowed a glimpse of the secret fairy world, as in the five enchanting stories framed within it. Enhanced by Sally Gardner's dainty, exquisitely detailed illustrations, the stories include The Seahorse and the Kelpie King , When I Was a Tooth Fairy , Princess Curly Long Locks , The Shoemaker and the Robber Elves , and One Pumpkin, Five Dears and Three Good Wishes .
