The Imaginaeries of Faerie Glen, written in conjunction with my younger daughter, Igz, is a modern-day fairy story set in a nature reserve right in the middle of Pretoria, South Africa.
Amid the hustle and bustle of daily life in the Glen, the Imaginaeries are also getting ready for The Ball – a glittery event that takes place at the first new moon after the leaves have fallen. But will PESCOM come to the party?
Ivy Lion makes Gogo Gaia furious when she experiments with colour, and Winona Wurm’s mischievous pets are given the ultimate warning at the Moonlight Meeting. Marigold discovers that not everybody is sunshine-flavored. Madame Shews, the snooty French shoe designer is up to something for sure and the Bollywoggles are keeping an eye on her.
Mor-a-Bella escaped from a cabbage bog but is life going to be any better in the Glen?
Will Pete the Publisher ever perfect his environmentally friendly newspaper? Can Granny Catty convince Mr. Grumpy Pants to stop being a hermit and accompany her to The Ball?
Meanwhile…things keep disappearing. Could there be a thief in the Glen?
Chris and I often used to hike in the very same magical reserve.
This is evolving into a series with the release of the novellas – Sham-Belly Shack and Winona’s Whistle. All are available on Amazon.
