In the early days of photography, in the mid 1800s, two little girls took photos of what they said, were fairies in their garden. An perhaps because photography was so new, or perhaps because people just wanted to believe, everyone thought they were real, and come to the gardens to see for themselves.

The girls never admitted that they had made up the fairies. And in the book, they insist that the reason they made paper fairies and photographed them was because the real fairies wouldn't stay still long enough





And OK story, but told as though what the children said was true, about the cut-out faries.

Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.
