I bought Lady Cottington's Pressed Fairy Book because my seven year old daughter, who believes in her diminutive stature that she is part fairy, has become obsessed with everything fairy! I read the book aloud to her using a false English accent & we had a blast! The book even comes with a window cling of a pressed fairy so that you have one of your own! The book was illustrated beautifully, & at times comically! However, after reading the book & viewing the illustrations, I would recommend that an adult preview the book's content before presenting it to a child. Some of the fairies posed in rather unpleasant poses, and one of Lady Cottington's journal entries deals with a situation that is little inappropriate for smaller children, otherwise, it's a fantastic book! A must for anyone that's half as addicted to fairies as my daughter!!Read full review
LOVE this little story. I owned a copy a number if years ago. Lent it out. Was never returned to me. I received it very quickly and have read it already!

Not your run-of-the-mill fairy tale. Bring your sense of humor along for this one! Wonderfully illustrated and weirdly articulated, Lady C's Pressed Fairy Book is sure to delight all fairy fanatics. This is the second time I have purchased this book. I originally bought it in 1994 for my then 3 year old niece. The artwork could be perceived as mildly erotic, but, oddly enough, 15 years ago I didn't even notice! Now that I am revisiting this book, I realize that the 10 year old niece for whom this book is intended will most certainly notice the illustrations and giggle, blush, or just revel in the taboo of the graphics! All in all, an enjoyable book (with a twist) for kids in the 'fairy phase'.
The book is in very good condition and even includes the added fairies! I bought one for my mother decades ago and she still has it on her coffee table. I wanted one for myself and my family. 💗🌸💗
