As
far as the Fairy Queen was concerned, the Fairy-who-wouldn't-fly was lazy and
so she banished her to the Woodn't, the place where she had sent all the other
creatures who wouldn't do as they should. There, the Fairy-who-wouldn't-fly met
many friends-the Kookaburra-who-wouldn't laugh, the
Bee-who-wouldn't-live-in-a-hive, the Frog-who-wouldn't-hop. Find out how they
worked together to return to Fairyland, and how they convinced the Fairy Queen
that they had good ideas of their own about how to live their lives.



The
magic tale of The Fairy Who Wouldn't Fly, adapted by Bronwyn Davies for
today's children, was originally written and illustrated by Pixie O'Harris in
1945.
