6/9/2023 0 Comments Fairy Science by Ashley SpiresThough the results are rather surprising and not exactly what Esther expects, Esther inspires a key fundamental change in the thoughts of open-minded fairies, which is in itself a transformative feat. When a problem presents itself to Esther and her fairy friends and fairy school teacher, scientific prowess and methods of magic are both put to the test. If you’re thinking that Esther might just have a tricky time of things in Pixieville with her lack of enthusiasm (and belief) in magic, well… you’re not wrong! As classmates see only magical, mysterious and serendipitous things in the world that need no explanation, Esther sees scientific method and logical explanations. Esther, our protagonist, is a fairy living in Pixieville who, shockingly, “does not believe in magic” but instead “believes in science”! While fairy friends around her (and her fairy school teacher) focus their attention on learning magic, practicing with their wands, and mixing magical potions, Esther is all about “facts, data, and hard evidence”. First up is Fairy Science, the latest picture book from popular Canadian children’s author and illustrator Ashley Spires ( The Most Magnificent Thing, Binky the Space Cat).
