## What happens in a fairy book

A fairy book from Inkling shrinks your child down into a hidden world: a city under the roots of a tree, a ball held on a lily pad, a garden where the flowers need help to wake up for spring. Your child can be a fairy with wings of their own or a human visitor the fairies trust. These stories suit children around three to seven who love tiny things, and they are lovely paired with a fairy door in the garden or a lost tooth.

## How a book like this might begin

> Poppy had always known there was something behind the little round door at the bottom of the garden. Today, it was open. She knelt down, squeezed her eyes shut, made a wish, and when she opened them again, the grass was as tall as trees and a fairy no bigger than a teaspoon was tugging at her sleeve.
>
> “We need your help,” said the fairy, whose name was Fern. “The spring flowers won’t wake up, and without them there is no honey, no color and no party.” She handed Poppy a tiny silver bell. “Ring this at every bud you find. Hurry, before the sun goes down.”

An example. Every book is written fresh for your child, so yours will be its own story.

## Story ideas parents start with

- Shrinking to fairy size for one magical afternoon
- The fairy door at the bottom of the garden
- Helping the fairies wake up the spring flowers
- Finding a fairy who has lost her wings in a rainstorm
- The fairy ball held on the night of the full moon
- Planting a seed that grows a tiny fairy house

## Details that make it theirs

- Whether they are a fairy themselves or a visitor
- The color of their wings, if they have them
- A real place in your garden or park the story can start from
- A favorite flower or bug

## When families give it

Fairy books are a common gift for a fourth or fifth birthday, for a child who has just lost a first tooth, or to go with a fairy garden made together in spring. Some families build the story around a real fairy door at home, so the book and the garden tell the same tale.

Printed books ship in about 8–15 business days, so order about three weeks ahead. You can read it on screen the moment it is made.

## Questions

### Can a boy star in a fairy book?

Yes. Many fairy stories star boys as fairies, elves or the human friend who finds the door. Describe your child and the story is written around them.

### Can the tooth fairy be in it?

Yes, or see our tooth fairy books, which are written around a first lost tooth.

### Do I need a photo?

No. A name is enough to start. A photo helps the illustrations look like your child.

### Can I change the story?

Yes. You read every page before you order and can change any page you like.

### What does it cost?

Free to make and preview. A hardcover is $45 with the eBook included, and a printed booklet about $21, US shipping included, for a standard 24-page book.

### How long does it take to arrive?

You can read it online in minutes. Printed copies arrive in about 8–15 business days with standard US shipping; our delivered US orders so far took 8 to 13 days. Faster shipping is offered at checkout.
