The book includes the stories of Will and the Magical Forest, Will and the River of Enchantment and Will and the Crystal Fairy written by author Dani Lynn. The Fairy Tale Project Trilogy is about Will, a city boy who goes to visit his Grandpa Otus out in the country in the small town of Astrophyllite. The story follows them on an adventure through a magical forest where they meet some delightful and some downright frightening creatures that teach them patience, to take time and enjoy life, and also give them the opportunity to face their fears, something they discover they are capable of through the power of love. Part One, Will and the Magical Forest: As a young boy, Grandpa Otus had a frightening experience in the magical forest and warned his grandson Will never to go near the dark, wooded area. But Will, upon being distracted by a playful frog, followed it directly into the forbidden forest. Forgetting his own fear, Grandpa ran right in to catch up with Will and right through an unseen portal, finding himself transformed into a young boy once again. Our travelers encounter the dreadful bophants and also the giant Namura who gives them a spell to awaken the Sphinx with the hope that he will show them the way home. Part Two, Will and the River of Enchantment: Will and Grandpa Otus meet some delightful creatures including fairies, gnomes, an enchanted unicorn and more along the River of Enchantment including the infamous Thiesel the Alligator, as they continue on their journey in search of the Sphinx. Part Three, Will and the Crystal Fairy: After journeying through one realm after another in this magical, mystical world, Will and Grandpa Otus find themselves in the very peculiar cave of the Sphinx as they attempt to answer his riddle in order to make their way back home. They meet a number of fanciful characters including the magical Crystal Fairy on their memorable journey. The Fairy Tale Project is based on a trilogy of children's books written by Dani Lynn and illustrated by award winning artist Jacklyn Laflamme. The project began in March 2010 with a grant from the Art and Cultural Division of Broward County, Florida. Dani and Jacklyn have shared their stories and artwork through art/ literature workshops and storybook readings at schools, museums, galleries, parks and libraries throughout Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties in South Florida. The unique combination of a fairy tale told with words and art made the story come alive and has been very well received by children and adults alike.
