Meet the fairies at the bottom of the garden who open the flower petals and polish the shiny beetles. One is a very shy fairy, but does the prettiest sparkly magic of all. When all the fairies are glum about a rainy day, the little sparkly fairy makes all the raindrops and puddles twinkle and look pretty to cheer them up. Sparkly foil glitters like magic on every page, and each spread has a different touchy-feely element enriching the story with silky fairy dresses, bumpy dotty toadstools and shiny fairy rain boots!
Growing up on the Wirral and in Germany, Anna wrote plays about talking animals, and stories about naughty children, and drew on every available surface. After school, she did an Art Foundation course, then a degree in German Literature and Philosophy at Oxford University. In 1998 she found her perfect job at Usborne in London, writing about everything from curious penguins to trips to the Moon.
