5.0 out of 5 stars Must have, February 13, 2000

By	Marianne J. (California) - See all my reviews

I love this book. The first day I got it, I couldn't put it down. It is very light reading, and is a great book to read. The art work is beautifully done, making it looks like they were actually squished. It also is great how you can see the main character kind of 'grow up'. This book is not for children in anyway, however, but it is a great gift for someone who has a sense of humor and loves fairys (ect).

5.0 out of 5 stars What a ride of whimsey and delight!, November 25, 1999

By	Nixie Lewis (Tallahassee, Florida) - See all my reviews

Modern technology has not found the tools to produce such a creative fantasy as this book! Those who are offended are taking the book (and life) WAY too seriously! I think this is one of the most clever and universaly entertaining books I have ever received. It will definately remain on my coffee table for some time!

5.0 out of 5 stars If you're ever gonna keep a journal, keep a fairy journal!, January 2, 1999

By A Customer

I got a copy of the fairy journal by pure luck, i ordered the Pressed Fairy Book and they sent me this lovely thing instead...i decided to keep it (ofcourse!!) as it was so amazing! It's just like the book, with the same illustrations and some of the text... I've had my journal for quite a while now, but i can't get myself to write in it, i don't wanna ruin it!! If you can't get the book, get this one instead!
