In this enchanting collaboration between renowned doll maker Wendy Froud and award winning writer Terri Windling, Sneezle’s Old Oak Wood comes vividly alive with the magical denizens of the faery kingdom: a fatherly old troll dispensing wisdom from deep in his burrow faery godmothers washing fragile wings Titania and Oberon, the great lovers who rule over this faery kingdom and a host of piskies, pookas, enchanted beasts, and darker spirits. Something wonderful will happen, he knows or perhaps something dreadful and strange, for the faeries have two sides to their natures. But just what will take place remains a mystery, for every year young Sneezle has fallen asleep. At dusk tonight, the Midsummer Eve festivities will begin a time of potent magic in the faery realm. In a forest called the Old Oak Wood, early on a rosy summer’s morn, a young faery named Sneezle wakes in his nest to the clear music of pipes and the warm smell of the sun.
