Cute for games.

Another of the books from my work library. We're a K-12 school, but we have most of the materials from Early Years to Primary Years, hence the skewing of my reading to children's picture books.

Anyhow, the book has some lovely illustrations that have a lot of detail. It's easy enough to play an associated I-Spy game with kids in Early Years (Nursery, Pre-K, Kindergarten), and it helps them look for the meanings of words nicely. No real story, just a lot of different fairy tail people showing up or hiding in the background.
