When Gavin and Alida found her family's new home, the faerie queen, Alida's mother, decided that the faeries should return to their former home. The faeries were worried that Lord Dunraven's guards would find and harm them if they stayed and did not like that they had to stay in hiding in their own home. Alida too was concerned and scared but the faerie queen had faith that Alida would find the solution to their situation. So Alida followed her heart and did something that no faerie had the courage to do for her people and the result seemed positive giving hope to the faeries.

I love that the story touched on how faith and encouragement from important people in your life and the love for others can give you the courage to follow your heart and do the impossible. It reminds me that very often in life we are faced with the unknown and taking the leap of faith is key in finding fulfilment and success. Love this book. Will definitely recommend it to my students and adults who don't mind reading children's books.
