I found this in the children's section at Common Good Books. It's a quick and charming read, telling the true story of the Cottingley Fairies. I liked that Mary Losure avoided telling the story in a simplistic way. She doesn't just present the girls, Elsie and Frances, as liars, or become an apologist for fairies. She suggests explanations for why the girls behaved as they did, but doesn't push any of them as absolute. Her delicate handling of the story allows subtleties to come out.
