Negative Positive
Title: Wonderful, heartwarming, reminiscent
Review: If you are a person of a certain age you will cherish this book. If you are younger than that, you will read what you may have missed in your childhood. Reading IN THE KINGDOM OF THE FAIRIES brought back to me a time when a relationship between a small child and an adult outside of the family was not questioned or prohibited. Sometimes it takes a person who is not related (or closely related) to take away the...not loneliness but the, sameness? that may happen when people live with each other day after day. It can create a bit of mystery to enliven the imagination.Susan Coyne has written her memoir with care and sensitivity about her five-year-old self. She has shown that there are people in this world who care about feeding and filling young minds with beauty, humor, imagination. She has shown that relationships through letters themselves can last a lifetime (Somehow I don't see young people of today remembering their text messages.)
