A notebook designated for fairies which increases with knowledge for the user as she grows older and more mature. Faith has received her first fairy handbook. It is a adventure log received for travel however we have made it into a fun book to use. It comes complete with colored pencils, eraser, pencil sharpener, tape measure, zipper close carrying case, pad of white paper and tracing paper, small clothes pins and white string. I have added in some pictures that I've created from the internet and Word using characters that are common in her books. Using her Fairy Chronicles books I have added descriptions of those magical items (i.e. ogre, gnome, unicorn, toadstool, elves). She has went from trying to get her friends to play fairies at school but not knowing how to, to pulling each of them in, sharing her notebook and asking for ideas as to how to solve problems within nature. The latest trouble was a volcano that kept erupting because of a spririt that was upset. She made a map for her and her fairy friends to find the volcano. She documented why fairies were important along with what to do if you encounter a pig in the forest. I had no idea this would be such a hit but she has taken it in and her behavior has drastically improved as she is becoming more aware of others and becoming a leader of the fairy circle.
