(3) K-3 A sturdy, rosy-cheeked, pigtailed girl searches home, garden, and forest for the fairies that she senses are all around her. Clever and richly colored, the paint and collage illustrations show fairies in all their variety, earthiness, and hedonism, always just out of her sight (but not the book's viewers'). After the girl gives up in frustration, the fairies leave her a gift, making for a happy ending.
