Fairy Wings

Reach for this book when your child expresses feeling left out because they lack a specific talent, physical trait, or social 'requirement' that their peers seem to value. It is a comforting balm for the child who feels like an outsider or is being teased for being different. Fia is a wingless fairy in a kingdom where flight is everything. While others soar, she walks, finding deep connection with the earth and its creatures. When a hungry troll threatens the winged fairies who cannot escape his reach, Fia's 'disability' becomes her greatest advantage. This lushly illustrated story is perfect for children aged 5 to 9, offering a metaphorical look at how our perceived weaknesses can often be our most unique strengths.
