Little Fairies



The Little Fairies,
written and illustrated by Sam Walshaw,
is a concept inspired by the folklore and mystery of fairies in the garden.
Whereas urban tales and heroes abound,
The Little Fairies take tiny viewers into their own tiny world
 where vibrantly coloured flowers and ferns
scramble towards the sunlight high overhead.
Insects and other small creatures go about their daily business
among iridescent blades of grass, and the slightest change
in the weather can have a big impact.
 As exciting as it is, the fairies don’t just stay in the garden.
Sometimes they go to the beach or the countryside too – in fact they will go
as far as their little wings will carry them!
Wherever they go, they encounter nature’s special dangers, threats, and problems.
 But the fairies never give up – they know there is always a way!
