"The Windfairies and Other Tales" by Mary De Morgan is a collection of enchanting children's stories written in the late 19th century. The book features whimsical tales that explore themes of love, loyalty, and the magical connection between human beings and fairies, as exemplified by the main character, Lucilla, who dances with windfairies throughout her life. The stories are richly illustrated and designed to capture the imagination of young readers. At the start of the book, we meet Lucilla, a lonely girl living with her father, the miller, near the sea. She discovers windfairies at her windmill, and after a magical encounter, they teach her to dance. Years pass, and she becomes a beautiful dancer, eventually marrying a sailor. However, as life presents challenges, Lucilla’s loyalty to the windfairies is tested, calling forth magic and consequences that shape her destiny. This opening sets the stage for a tale filled with wonder and moral lessons, emphasizing the importance of trust and the impact of one's choices.
