An encyclopedia of fairies: Hobgoblins, brownies, bogies, and other supernatural creatures
Average rating
4 out of 5
Based on 388 Ratings and 32 Reviews

Book Description
Perhaps she should have called it "Everything You Wanted to Know about Fairies, but Were Afraid to Ask." This book covers every type of "little people" from abbey lubbers to Young Tam Lin. Not just the tiny, translucent winged pixies of popular art, but brownies, goblins and bogies, even larger creatures like dragons and mermaids. Exhaustive in its coverage, while still entertaining.
