Fairies and Chimneys is a delightful book for the young and grown-ups too about fairies and frequently about fairies and chimneys.
The last third of the book is a section on Bird Lore and covers poems on: peacocks, cuckoo, rooks, the robin, the cock, The grouse and the Skylark. These poems also include fairy references. "The Robin is the fairies' page; They keep him neatly dressed For country service or for town In dapper livery of brow and little scarlet vest....And lately, when the fairy Court Invited me to tea, He stood behind the Royal Chair; And here, I solemnly declare, When he discovered I was there, That robin *winked* at me."
A fun little book to read aloud. A quote from flap of the dust cover says it best "a book of whimsy and make believe and a happy little philosophy all its own."
