“I wanted to give our babies their own fairies, fairies they would go off to find and respect. To teach them that if we look after Country, the fairies will look after us too, just like the land always has.” - Charlotte Allingham
Drawing from a childhood love of fairies, Charlotte masterfully challenges colonial narratives in existing fairy art and literature by centring a love of Blak people and Country. This is showcased in 30 full-colour illustrations, where the reader is immersed in a world that exists right in our backyards. It is a project that marries culture and imagination, which honours the diversity and beauty of our landscapes and communities.
