That's the first thing a reader will notice. The artwork is incredible. It mixes an adorable style with one that's more artistic and what you get are images you'll want to stare at, picking up each part... I appreciate this book so much because Evie has a kind heart. There isn't a bratty bone in her body and it's refreshing to read a story like that with my niece... Perfect for a six-year-old, keeping her attention throughout. This was just a lovely book that is sure to become a favorite with kids.'<br /> - Michelle Lynn, YA Book Central</p> <p>'A great story about the importance of helping others... I would describe the illustrations in this book as sweet and precious. Stefanie Dahle does a wonderful job of showing a magical world of woodland fairies and animals... This book is a great tool to help young children understand the importance of helping others.'<br /> - Youth Services Book Review</p> <p>'I loved this imaginative book! The sweet story and the lovely characters made the whole book adorable! Evie's character is so cute and funny. I fell in love with her right away, and was truly interested in all the ups and downs of her journey to the strawberry fair. She is so good-natured and generous. The artwork is enchanting with soft lines and beautiful colors. I loved all the little details in the background of each scene that add so much depth to the story. Fairy houses, little gardens, flowers, and tiny bugs and magic creatures all dot the landscape in various places, and add to the charm of this magical fairy world. I also love the subtle message that when you are generous with others, you will be rewarded for your kindness This book is absolutely captivating!'<br /> - Books for MKs</p> <p>'Another charming tale by Dahle... It combines a magical world with teaching children that working together and caring for one another is sometimes more important than personal ambition. The vibrant hand-drawn detailed expressive illustrations are in a mix of pencils, watercolour paint, pastels and gouache making this a very appealing second story about Evie.'<br /> - Outside In World</p> <p>Praise for <em>Evie and the Strawberry Patch Resue</em>: </p> <p>'A home-and-away story without the homecoming resolution typical to children's stories, which enhances rather than undermines its charm. Sweet.'<br /> - Kirkus Reviews</p> <p>'What I really liked about this book is how so many woodland creatures come out to help Evie make her new home and transport her strawberries. The illustrations are very detailed and take a little time to see everything happening on the page - a beetle scooping water out of a flooded home, a butterfly flapping its wings to help dry a rug, and a small bug carrying a stack of tea cups. I could see slowly reading this book with a young child so they can notice all the illustrations that enrich the text.'<br /> - Youth Services Book Review</p> <p>'I love how the story helps us understand how all of nature is interconnected. The detailed, colourful illustrations combine the natural world with fairies, reminiscent of childhood favourites.'<br /> - Juno Magazine</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Stefanie Dahle is a bestselling children's author and illustrator.
