The riotous blooms of Spring are over, but Cicely Mary Barker's summertime flower fairies are equally charming and colourful. What sets this collection apart from her first publication is that Barker is much more experimental with her compositions. Most of the springtime fairies are presented nearly standing beside their flora, presenting both their creatively flower-inspired costumes and Barker's careful botanicals to full effect, but their summery companions are show at their ease. We see them perched charefully among their flowers' branches, lying restfully on the ground, and even backwards presenting their lovely wings. Choosing a favourite from this collection is surely a challenge, when Barker has so carefully instilled each fairy with a unique personality, but I am particularly drawn to the couture dress of the poppy fairy, the artful blossoms and mischief of the honeysuckle fairy, and the delicate colours of the scabious fairy. ( ) I love Cicely Mary Barker's exquisite art, but her poems I usually skip. These are the fairies that appear in Flower Fairies of the Summer, in alphabetical order [with one fairy listed both under the name Ms. Barker used and the name more commonly used in the USA]: Bird's-Foot Trefoil Fairy Buttercup Fairy Convolvulus Fairy Forget-Me-Not Fairy Foxglove Fairy Greater Knapweed Fairy Harebell Fairy Heather Fairy Herb Robert Fairy Nightshade Fairy Poppy Fairy Ragwort Fairy Rose Fairy Scabious FairyScabious Fairy Snapdragon [Toadflax] Fairy Toadflax Fairy Traveller's Joy Fairy Wild Rose Fairy White Clover Fairy Yarrow Fairy keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
