Fairytales, folklores, and legends have been around for generations, even before the first written page came into being. Children have always been fascinated with the mythical characters appearing in these tales.
Fairies are children’s favorite magical creatures. In most stories, they look a lot like humans, with a pair of wings. They fly from place to place, playing tricks on unsuspecting victims. Some fairies are mischievous, while some do everything to make life easier for their special people.

Her hands are holding the wand and her dance movement looks so graceful. There is a picture of two other little fairies watching the ballet-dancing fairy.
