The Fairy-Land of Science
The Fairy-Land of Science, by author Arabella B. Buckley, is a somewhat bold promise, seeing that most readers probably look upon science as a bundle of dry facts, while fairy-land is all that is beautiful, and full of poetry and imagination. The author thoroughly believes, and hopes to prove to you, that science is full of beautiful pictures, of real poetry, and of wonder-working fairies; and more, promises you they shall be true fairies, whom you will love just as much when you are old and grayheaded as when you are young; for you will be able to call them up whenever you wander by land or by sea, through meadow or through wood, through water or through air; and though they themselves will always remain invisible, you will see their wonderful poet at work everywhere around you..

Fairyland in Art and Poetry
Poetry to delight anyone who still believes in magic.

"When the first baby laughed for the first time, the laugh broke into a thousand pieces and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies."
--J. M. Barrie, Scottish, 1860-1937, from Peter Pan

The art of Englishman Richard Doyle offers lush glimpses into the world of the wee folk. Doyle's fairies troop through meadows, twirl in the moonlight, and enlist birds and bugs in games and mischief. His whimsical illustrations, chosen from the Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, are paired with poems by William Shakespeare, John Keats, Robert Louis Stevenson, William Butler Yeats, Laura Ingalls Wilder, Stevie Smith, and Langston Hughes, among others.

Fairy sweethearts among the roses illustrate Wilder's "The Fairies in the Sunshine," elf babies in a snail race match Robert Graves's "I'd Love to Be a Fairy's Child," and a fairy queen carried by butterflies reimagines Shakespeare's popular "Queen Mab" soliloquy. A magical treasury that will enchant readers of all ages.
