Sobre IBD

'Believing is seeing,' Nor explained. 'I live with faeries and that seems far-fetched to most people, but because I believe in them, they are always around me.''I was told to fear ’You-know-Who’. To this day, even though I am a grown man, I am scared of him.' said Frans. 'I never mention his real name!''I don’t mind my Mother’s Welsh faeries,' added Rene, 'but the Spriggans are different. They tease me whenever I step out into the garden.'If believing is seeing, thought Polly, who felt sorry for her aunt, 'I’ll find You-know-Who and ask him to chase the Spriggans right out of Rene’s life!'’This is a charming story from Africa that brings to mind many distant feelings, recollections, and memories. It is well written with believable child appeal.’ - RJMD
