Synopsis

Once upon a time, there was a very special boy who believed in miracles. Orphaned at age eleven, Mike was taken in to live with his widowed aunt and her three sons.

In Last Island of Fairies, author Larisa Rice shares her own childhood love of fairy tales by offering a wholesome fantasy story that acknowledges life’s losses without overdramatizing them.

Readers follow young Mike’s sea journey that reveals—to him alone—a mysterious island, introducing him to a world of magical wonders. Along with Mike, you’ll meet the secret island’s funny, interesting, and entirely endearing inhabitants: Hostess of the Island, Sleep Fairy, Water Fairy, and Rainbow Fairy, among many others.

Adults and children alike will enjoy visiting this beautiful island where kindness can overcome great wrongs and working together can solve any difficulty.

Could it be that these fairies know secret truths we’ve long forgotten?

Last Island of Fairies is Rice’s modern take on an old form. Her characters are sure to delight, and her story will make you believe in the possibility of magic.

Who knows—you just might find a star winking at you in the near future...

About this title

About the Author:

Larisa Rice enjoys living in the “real world” with her husband and daughter, but she also loves to experience her own vivid fantasy world, which she’s imagined since she was child. She holds two university degrees and has worked for over twenty years as a child rehab counselor, a job that allowed her to dream up stories that could help her young patients better understand the world they had to face each day.

Having grown up with good old-fashioned fairy tales, Rice has recaptured the child-friendly magic of white fairies in her novel Last Island of Fairies, which tells the hopeful story of kindness overcoming evil. With her story, Rice wants to help children learn, as she learned from fairy tales herself as a kid, that goodness will always triumph, and even tough problems can be solved when we work together.
