Synopsis

Pish and Posh are very best friends. They live in the same house, share their chores, and usually get along.

One day, a Fairy Handbook mysteriously lands at their door. An awfully curious Posh can't resist the book's magic, despite Pish's warnings. When Posh learns that being a beginner fairy is tough work -- and possibly big trouble -- will Posh turn to her wise friend Pish for help?

Young readers are sure to fall in love with this adorable and riotously original new pair of characters!

Review:

"Bottner’s buoyant pictures feature comical facial expressions, adding the right tone to this breezy portrait of an opposites-attract friendship." -- Publishers Weekly

"This book scores a hit with two well-defined characters: irrepressible, curious, impatient Posh and the more mature and methodical Pish." -- School Library Journal
