Revue de presse :
Throughout this short and lovely book there are clues Crook knows exactly what he is doing ... And there are each and every one of the author's own illustrations, which are nigh-on outstanding. Mostly bold ink outlines with textured pencil shading (I think), they marry the slightly cartoonish with fine art, and show Crook could easily have had that as a career. But then there's the writing. He uses a style that is perfectly in tune with making an instant classic. Timeless in aspects, it s warm, brisk, no-nonsense and absolutely clear. It's funny without forcing out the jokes, involving while having a for-all-comers simplicity, and effective at everything it tries to do. So I'll come out with it. I've read books by TV celebrities and famous names trying something very different on for size (hello Craig Charles, Tim Burton). They've generally all underwhelmed. But the simple truth is that nobody will have expected a book this darned good to come from this source ... [A] quite beautiful book of charming lightheartedness, fine invention and warm, gripping drama. --The Bookbag
[A] little gem of vivid imagination, gentle humour and moral message ... An impressive debutwhich Crook has illustrated himself with atmospheric black and white drawings. Let's hope there's more to come. --Sally Morris, Daily Mail
[A] charming, finely produced little treasure, told with clarity, wit and lightness. --Nicolette Jones, Sunday Times

When a storm sweeps through the country, Asa wakes up the next day to find that his town is almost unrecognisable - trees have fallen down, roofs have collapsed and debris lies everywhere. But amongst the debris in his back garden Asa makes an astounding discovery - the body of a small winged creature. A creature that looks very like a fairy. Do fairies really exist? Asa embarks on a mission to find out. A mission that leads him to the lost journals of local eccentric Benjamin Tooth who, two hundred years earlier, claimed to have discovered the existence of fairies. What Asa reads in those journals takes him on a secret trip to Windvale Moor, where he discovers much more than he'd hoped to . . .
