From the author of the Waterstones Children’s Prize shortlisted Once Upon a Unicorn Horn comes a heart-warming story of kindness and courage. Min is a little fairy who is afraid of the dark, but has a bright star in a jar which helps her feel brave. One night, in the dark forest, Min comes across a creature. Min is terrified, until she realises that the creature might be afraid – like her. Bravely, she hands over some of her star and continues on her way. With every creature Min meets, she hands out more and more of her star. But on her way back, she realises she’s given away so much that there isn’t any light left for her, and an old fear creeps in . . . how will she get home? A gentle, reassuring tale about how courage grows when it’s shared, Once Upon a Fairy’s Dust reminds readers that the light we give to others always finds its way back to us. Beatrice Blue’s vibrant colours and whimsical, detailed illustrations bring Min’s magical forest to life, making this the perfect bedtime read for young dreamers learning about empathy, bravery and friendship. Once Upon a Fairy’s Dust is the latest book in the critically acclaimed and best-selling Once Upon A . . . series.
