The Cottingley Fairies is a book I wish I had been able to read as a small child. Imaginative, short, and yet full circle. The whimsical illustrations draw the reader into the sisters' world, and the accompanying text is minimal but tells the story well. I had heard of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's involvement with the Cottingley Fairy pictures, but would never have thought to look for a book telling the story for children! It was just adorable and I think will be a wonderful addition to any library for children.
I also appreciated the note at the end of the book, clarifying the actual known facts of the story. Very intriguing!
Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the free copy in exchange for an honest review!
