The One-Eyed Fairies
Georgia Eldridge Hanley and Julia Greene
The one-eyed fairies live in the sewing basket: Sir Bodkin, the stitchers Baster and Runner, Dainty Hemmer, the Crewel One, and old Doctor Darner. Georgia Eldridge Hanley turns plain sewing into a fairy court where every needle has a name and a temper. Handwork learned by enchantment. Open the basket gently. Please note: this is the text of the story only. It has no pictures, so it is meant for a grown-up to read aloud rather than for a child to read alone. The illustrated experience of this story is the audiobook edition on Littletone.
