Eglantine and the Elves (With Black & White Illustrations)

Book excerpt: Ten-year-old Eglantine's visit to Cornwall is an enchanted experience, as she bounds head first into an encounter with tiny elemental beings: magical elves that bestow the gift of communication with animals, and she is caught up in a race against time to return them safely to their own realm. Drawing from folklore and the ancient fairy traditions, the story focuses on the places in nature where such supernatural spirit entities can be found. This children's fantasy is also suitable for older readers of all ages, and features illustrations by the author.
