      Accompanying her parents to a small Maine island for a week's vacation, Kristen discovers a wonderful world of tiny woodland fairy houses, and is inspired to create one of her own. Checking back on it regularly, she adds improvements - berries to tempt the fairies to take up residence, a little pool of water to refresh them - always hoping that she might catch a glimpse of the elusive creatures. At first, all she sees are the woodland animals who enjoy the treats she sets out. And then, on the last day of vacation, something extraordinary happens...I think that I may just be the wrong audience for this one, because although I can see the appeal of Tracy Kane's Fairy Houses, and imagine that young readers who love the idea of fairies, and are convinced of their reality, will really take it to heart, I just wasn't all that impressed.
