I'm sure you've heard of fairies. You've probably heard of pixies too. But maybe you thought they only existed in stories.
Alice is fed up. Her family have moved to the countryside and there are no adventures to be found at all. Or so she thinks...
But everything changes when she meets seven-year-old Max who shares the most wonderful secret. At the bottom of his garden is an oak tree with a tiny door. And through that tiny door live three pixies.
The pixies are relieved to meet Alice - as they need her help. Their queen has been frozen by the mean fairies and only the bravest adventurers can come to her rescue and save the day.
A delightful new series for 6+ in the tradition of The Magic Faraway Tree.
Pixies vs Fairies is published under the fictional author nameAubrey Jones. Welbeck and Tibor Jones - a new boutique packager - have developed the series with a team of new writers, who work collaboratively with a creative approach echoing the TV script-writing model.Katy Halford is a children's book illustrator living in Leicestershire.
