"City Faerie Tales" is a collection of Modern Fairy Tales for children and their parents to read and talk about together. Each of the six delightfully written and illustrated stories has a message about the modern world, the natural world and how to best live in both."City Faerie Tales" are allegorical stories with life lessons in the vein of old European folk tales, but with lessons pertinent to the children of modern city families. There are themes and imagery from Celtic faerie stories and spirituality throughout.
'The Gardener' is the story of a girl who grows up, struggling to retain her love of life. She does so with the help of some winged friends from her childhood.
'Hazel and The Ducks' is a short comedic story about a girl's negotiations with the local park ducks.
'Copperhair' is a girl who is seeking something she has lost, but must guard her identity from lurking goblins. It is an allegorical story on internet safety.
'The Unhappy King' tells of a King who finds happiness, but forgets to take care of his responsibilities. It urges balance.
'Threads' is a boy's journey to craft his life. He travels, taking threads from things he falls in love with, and learns that the greatest warmth is home and family.
'The Hungry Knight' is a short tale of a Knight who uses guile to fill his hungry tummy. The lesson is that sometimes it is okay to lose, if it is a benefit in the long run.
