#87 Dahlia, The Blind Fairy
One mid-summer’s day, ten little fairies danced in a ring of stones under the wise, old elder tree when suddenly, Dahlia smelled smoke. Her pet hawk, Jupiter swooped in to help as the fairy queen told all the animals how they could help alert their forest and field friends. Everyone jumps into action including Dahlia.
A very touching story about friends helping each other in a moment of need.
Perfect for children ages 3 to 7
