Growing up, I was obsessed with fairytales, magic, medieval times, and mythical creatures. I remember one summer, my parents took my little sister and I to a fairy festival somewhere in Wisconsin in the woods. We got to dress up in our fairy costumes, build fairy houses in a contest, get our faces painted, and listen to stories being read to us by a grown-up fairy under a canopy of pine trees. I’ll never forget how special going to this festival was, and although I may be in my 20’s now, when I learned that the Bookworm Gardens was hosting a Fairy Folk Festival for a fairy-themed week this summer, I was filled with excitement.
