There are enchanting creatures all around us, but they’ll try to keep out of sight unless you know what to look for! For intrepid seekers and readers of How to Spot a Fairy, here’s how to note them all! 

For centuries, enchanted woodland creatures have lived alongside us in the treetops, forests, caves, and streams that make up our natural world. Often mistaken for “ordinary” animals, there’s more than meets the eye when you come upon one. This illustrated compendium of magical woodland creatures explores the history and mythology of these oft-sought beings. From bears and beavers to woodpeckers, dragonflies, snakes, and more, How to Spot a Magical Woodland Creature offers tips on how to seek out the enchanted animals living among us. With interactive quizzes and crafts, there’s endless fun and adventure to be had in this field guide to woodland magic!
