This captivating image comes from a collection of 12 books, known
as Lang's Fairy Books (or Andrew Lang's Fairy Books of Many
Colours). Compiled by Andrew Lang, illustrated by Henry Justice
Ford and published under the editorial direction of Lang's wife,
Leonora Alleyne, the books were a sensation among British
schoolchildren and were sold all around the world. Each book in the
series was named for the colour of its featured fairy, and this
Olive Fairy notebook reproduces the front cover of that book's
first edition.Lang was a Scottish poet, novelist and anthropologist
who specialized in collecting folk and fairy tales from around the
globe. Published in 1907, his Olive Fairy Book includes stories
such as ",The Golden-Headed Fish", and ",The Prince and the
Princess in the Forest", gathered from places like Turkey, India,
Denmark, Armenia and the Sudan. H.J Ford's Olive Fairy illustration
offers a botanical and almost insectile quality that gives her a
sense of scientific realism as well as fey possibility.May the
Olive Fairy bring a hint of vintage whimsy to your writings.
Medvedík by si zo všetkého najviac želal krásnu loptu. Kde by ju
len mohol nájsť? Asi to bude riadna fuška. Jedna guľatá vec je
príliš veľká, druhá malá, ďalšia veľmi ťažká… So žiadnou sa nedá
hrať. Vie vôbec, ako taká pravá lopta vyzerá?
