Pearlie and the Silver Fern Fairy

Pearlie and the Silver Fern Fairy

In a lush New Zealand forest, Pearlie is helping the park fairy Omaka prepare a very special party. The rushing streams and glistening silver fern fronds make one of the loveliest sights Pearlie has ever seen, but soon she discovers that this wild park is full of surprises. And its creatures are the most surprising of all! When Pearlie finds herself lost among the ancient trees, she starts to worry. Is something hiding in the branches? Perhaps a wise old local could let Pearlie in on some of the forest's secrets.
