Your descriptions of the festivities in fairyland were spot on. I could imagine the fun, the nectar, and the excitement. It's every child's fantasy to play with fairies and have it be a secret no adult shares. I loved it. gayla

Comment from Loren .
I did enjoy reading this light-hearted story. It spoke of earlier times and of innocent fun. In a way it transported the reader to an "imaginary" world that you shared through the eyes of the two girls. Though admonished by the fairy not to tell anyone, it does no escape my notice that the story was captured in written form. Well done - Loren

Comment from Sallyo
This is an interesting story because, on the surface, it's the sunny tale of sisters playing with fairies among the trees, but to anyone steeped in fairy lore there are constant hints of danger. Tricky vines and giant mushrooms hold a hint of menace, and eating or drinking anything offered by a fairy is held to be dangerous in some lore. (Not in the fairy place I write about...) Then there's the "don't tell anyone" and the playful (?) threat to turn them into mushrooms...
Hmmm

Oh, Jacquelyn, this is so sweet. I loved this tale of two regular girls who got to play with the fairies. It is delightfully and could do it again and again as long as they don't tell anyone. Who would want to chance being turned into a mushroom, after all. LOL..
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful story with us and for being such an upbeat and lovely woman,.
I have to tell you that I was going to give you my one nomination I had left today for reviewing. But after talking to Tom, he told me that somehow it got used twice on the same person last night when my hand jerked on the screen of my iPad.
So instead I bumped you from 52 to 72 cents on this delightful post.
You are such a wonderful reviewer, my dear friend.
Love, Debi

Thank you for your wonderful and encouraging review. Also for the compliments. Thank you for the rating that you gave me. I’m glad that you enjoyed it. Your review is encouraging for me. I haven’t written too many stories here, I write mostly poetry, but have wanted to get back into my writing stories. Thank you for the consideration for the nomination, and for bumping me to 72 cents. I appreciate you.

Your story is pure magic! I love how you shared the excitement of Lily and Sophie's adventure - it felt so real. It was like I was right there running through the woods with them. The fairies and elves were so fun! The ending was perfect. Just like a good fairy tale should be. This was such a joy to read!

This was such a lighthearted read, and I like the idea of playing hide and seek with the fairies in a secret world, that is reveled only to the kids. Thak you for sharing and good luck with your writings.

Although this is a fantasy write Jacquelyn we have large dragonflies here called the red veined darter and they are huge and they hover in front of your eyes and then dart way, they remind me of fairies. I enjoyed your well written post as your imagination entertained us here, love Dolly x x x

This is a hidden gem! After skipping a lot of potential candidates for review, I landed on this sweet little story. I would love to create a small comic based on your story. Beautifully told. And vividly imagined.
