    WOW ! The front cover of the book looks like it's been done in embroidery. It's so beautiful.

    I really appreciated your review and detailed flip through of this beautiful Charles van Sandwyk (folio society Ed) book. I've had my eye on it for a while, but this really helped push me over the edge confidently and I love it. So much so that I have since bought his whole Folio Society collection ( I can heartily recommend Mr Rabbits Symphony of Nature, its my favourite) and two of his own hand made originals Affairs of the Heart and Tree Whispers ( magical ). So thank you, this video was truly a gift at the right time when I needed poking back to life after a very difficult time and has sent marvellous ripples through my life.

      Hi Marion, I'm so glad the video was useful for you! I've since also bought Letters from Fairyland which I'll review soon.

      I find the faerie realm fascinating. My review on the Secret Commonwealth (the original, not the new Pullman book) keeps getting delayed, but it will come eventually! I also expect a couple more from Brian Froud ;p
