Alanna and the Forest Fairies Sylvia Weaver Rivera

Alanna is a sweet and curious 8-year-old girl. She lives with her family in a quaint cottage at the edge of the Giant Tree Forest. Alanna has heard about and is fascinated by fairies and has always hoped to see one. She frequently visits with a widow neighbor that lives on a small farm just over a knoll not far from her home. The widow seems to know a lot about fairies. Alanna has a kind heart and because of this the fairies favor her and reveal themselves to her. One of her delightful encounters with the fairies happens at a festival in a nearby village that is held in honor of the elusive fairies.
