Award-winning children's author and storyteller Janis Mackay invites the fairies of the forest and garden to listen to her stories, along with you. Sing along with the fairy song, dress up if you like and sprinkle some fairy magic! Inspired by Janis' book The Fairy Song (Floris Books), this fun, enchanting and magical performance of storytelling and song is perfect for ages 3-8 years. Books will be available to purchase and Janis will happily sign copies for any wee fairies or forest creatures.

The story at the end was fine, and told nicely. The preceding 40 minutes of unfamiliar songs, fairy lore and Shakespeare poems offered precious little to engage the toddlers in the room. The fringe is all about trying new things, some hit and some miss. This was firmly the latter, sadly. Suggest passing this one up.
