7Fabulous fairies teach the alphabet in this unique collection of paintings and rhymes by Fanny Y. Cory, a famous illustrator of children's books in the early 20th century. Drawing from the fairy lore of many cultures, Cory created these adorable fairies to amuse herself and her children, but the little sprites were too free-spirited to stay with just one family. Now they and their animal friends delight children everywhere.
