Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 184255087X, Paperback)

Before she was made to wear glasses, it was clear to Elsie that she could see what others – especially her scientist father – could not: that the world is full of fairies. Now, beset by squabbling parents and her horrible cousin Belinda, she has almost forgotten them. How Elsie rediscovers the fairy world and reunites a furious Fairy King and Queen who are accusing each other of stealing fairy gold is a comic and delicious story, in which – as always in Sally Gardner's Magical Children stories – a contemporary child is empowered by a special talent.
