{"product_id":"the-faeries-of-spring-cottage","title":"The Faeries of Spring Cottage","description":"While searching for shelter from a rainstorm  a little faery named Sneezle is pursued by a band of strange creatures with wooden swords. Theyre not faeries  theyre not goblins...in fact  he doesnt know what they are. With their long sticklike limbs  gnarled faces  and mouths full of knife-sharp teeth  they arent like anything the denizens of Old Oak Wood have ever seen. Sneezle barely escapes  but another band of the ugly little creatures chases him out of the safety of the woods. Fleeing for his life  the little faery is forced to find refuge in a place that is almost as frightening as the stick men themselves -- in an old stone cottage at the edge of the forest. It is here that Sneezle must confront his greatest adventure and biggest fear. In The Faeries of Spring Cottage  fans of young Sneezle will be delighted to see that their reluctant hero is journeying out of Old Oak Wood (even if it is against his will) and encountering humans for the first time  as well as other enchanting  mysterious -- and sometimes scary -- new beings. This dazzling collaboration between renowned doll maker Wendy Froud and award-winning writer Terri Windling introduces a host of magical new characters  including a strange faery court beneath a kitchen sink  rat-faery warriors  and faery dolls that magically come to life. Art-directed by Brian Froud  creator of Good Faeries\/Bad Faeries  this latest volume in the Sneezle series captures the diminutive hero on his latest adventure in vivid detail. Following the success of Wendy Froud and Terri Windlings first two Sneezle stories  A Midsummer Nights Faery Tale and The Winter Child  this new volume opens the magical window of enchantment once more with an extraordinary combination of story and art. The Faeries of Spring Cottage is destined to charm and captivate lovers of fairy tales  fantasy literature  and all things Froudian.","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44835251781685,"sku":"ByrdShop_074320235X","price":57.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/ByrdShop_074320235X_800e142c-7710-4c12-a46f-ceef0ec8319e.jpg?v=1764931875","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-faeries-of-spring-cottage","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
