Where have all the great fairy stories gone?
We asked ourselves this very question and quickly realized the short answer: Right Here! Meet our first ever, award winning book, “A Fairy Tale”. Winner of the Mom’s Choice Awards Honoring Excellence, the imagery, diverse characters, and poetic text make this an instant classic. Written by children’s book author, Candy Grant, this story and its hand painted illustrations by artist Rebecca Jordan-Glum, will captivate adults and children alike. Want to know more? Check out the fan reviews on Amazon and see why this is one of the fastest selling books on our list!
In honor of over 2 years of indie-publishing, we are hosting a rare book give away via our blog. TWO lucky winners will each receive a copy of “A Fairy Tale”. Just comment below and share this post with friends who love kid literature. We will pick 2 winners at random on Wednesday, March 30th at 3 p.m. EST. Winners will be announced at the bottom of this post on that day and time.
Special Note:
Last month, this book, along with illustrator, Rebecca Jordan-Glum, was highlighted by our fabulous friends at Tinkerlab. You’ll LOVE this site, full of inspirational ideas that encourage kids to think for themselves through self-designed experimentation. From crafting, to art, to science experiments…there’s a little something for everyone, including adults! Thanks so much to Tinkerlab for their support of education, creativity, and literacy!
My daughter loved it
Thanks Amanda! We are delighted to hear she loved it! AFT Secret: Did you know the little girl in the story studies physics? Check out her book shelf and see for yourself!
This looks like an adorable book. I love fairy tales!
Our staff is pretty fond of fairies as well! We were so excited to have Rebecca on board for the drawings!
I’ve always loved fairies and now I can’t wait to share their story with my little guy, Isaac! I love seeing his imagination soar at only 16 months old so I can’t wait to see what he thinks about fairies!!
Thanks Tracy! These fairies are very childlike and all from diverse backgrounds. AFT Secrect #2: All the fairies LOVE Sacagawea. Just check out the scene with 10 fairies in the little girl’s room!
My son loves science and when we talked about “jobs” that scientists do he said “well only boys can be scientists”! I said no way-girls can be scientists too. I know he would love this story. Plus he loves all of Miss Candy’s books!
Wow! It’s wonderful to hear that your son loves science! You will find the Tinkerlab site is an Amazing resource! Candy will be thrilled to hear about one of her biggest fans!
Candy Grant is awesome. 🙂
My son loves “The Pigs Did It”. We love Candy Grant’s books.
