It includes basic information for beginning gardeners, such as soil preparation, planting, and watering, then branches into appropriate categories for every fairy gardener: * making miniature gardens and terrariums that are just the right size for fairy friends * butterfly and hummingbird gardens to attract these flying friends of fairies * rock gardens * water gardens * wind chimes and prisms to add music and light to your gardens Sprinkled throughout are bits of fairy lore and garden wisdom. Written for children, or anyone with a child's heart, and filled with color photographs, the Fairy Garden Handbook will turn curious kids into green thumbs in no time.
