Reviewed by Mamta Madhavan for Readers' Favorite

Fairy Folk and Other Strange Little Creatures by Helen Porteous and Linda Lycett is a magical read for children where they learn about the adventures of fairy folk and other little creatures. All the stories take young readers into a realm of adventure, magic, and fantasy, and at the same time convey an important message and concept to them. Whether it's the Wind Wizard, Ladybug Betty, Golden Ball or Warrior Ant, children will love to hear their stories and adventures, and will want to experience them. The fairies and creatures in the book will delight readers and keep them enchanted till the very end.

Children love fairies and magical creatures. I found these characters whimsical and fascinating, and their stories are not only enthralling but also convey messages. The illustrations are bright and colorful and they breathe life into the characters and the stories, helping young readers to connect well with them. The illustrations also give clarity, pace, and movement to the book. The characters are adorable and memorable, and kids will love their adventures. Children understand concepts and messages clearly when explained with the help of a story and pictures. The illustrations are whimsical, just like the characters that will captivate and leave a lasting impression in the minds of young readers.
