Gilly Sloper is at the Penponds School
The pupils Penponds School in Cambourne, Cornwall will have a very lucky day as they'll get to meet the brilliant author Gilly Sloper at the end of next month as she reads from her story 'The Fairies of Jenny's Field'. This staggering new children's book tells the unbelievable truth about fairies: they're real!
Nine-year-old Nell and her six-year-old brother Charlie live in Cornwall and they have a teacher who believes in fairies. And very soon they will, too, because something has to be put right.
In a charming story of fairies, children and time author Gilly Sloper creates in The Fairies of Jenny's Field a world where drawings can come to life and fairies can place their babies in the soft middles of daisies while they go to gather food.
But all is not right, a terrible thing has happened and only the children can fix it, but can they find their way to the past to do it?
