BOOK REVIEW


"The Elf That Flew" by Lindy Mitchell is a wonderful new book for young children. Greenleaf the Elf loves living in the rainforest, and spending time with his friends the trees... until the day he sees some fairies flying past and wishes that he could fly too. Greenleaf's hilarious attempts at flying will enchant children as they learn the important lesson of being happy with who they are.
A delightful story coupled with brilliant illustrations, celebrates the beauty of the environment. It is particularly relevant to Australian children and has additional information about the rainforests in the Central Coast of NSW.

Highly recommended for school and public libraries or as a gift for a lucky child. I purchased five copies for our library!

Having just seen the author, Lindy Mitchell, performing the story of "The Elf that Flew", I am sure that children - and adults - who are lucky enough to book Lindy for a performance will be thrilled with her show. Told with audience participation and a delightful costume, she is sure to engage the audience, while imparting wisdom and a love of the environment.
