Intentionally named after Queen Maeve of Ireland - fairy queen, warrior queen, sovereign goddess of the land - is it any wonder that our Maeve has tales to tell of the fairy land she sometimes inhabits, and the fairy folk who live there? These are quotes from our future Queen of the Fairies.

The way we get to fairy land is, we draw a picture of it. First we put in one foot, then one arm, then the other foot, then the other arm, then our heads, then our back, then my tushy, then we're all the way in. Then we realize our legs are small instead of big, and our arms are short instead of long, and that our whole selves are small instead of big, because we're fairies in fairy land. Then we start flapping our wings and we figure out how to use them, and we fly away, and sprinkle fairy dust on things.
Fairies never die. When they die, they don't really die, they just turn into trees and flowers and other plants. And if they get tired of being a tree, they can go underground and they can just turn into a daffodil or whatever they want to turn into. They can turn back into a fairy if they want to. Just their shadow stays underground.
