What a delightful children's story. I can't wait to read it to my grandchildren. The illustrations are awesome and the story is delightful.
Mikolay and Julia live in the same neighbourhood and both their mothers are witches. The two little children go to magic school and one day they use their magic without supervision. They end up meeting fairies in a forest that is being destroyed by a monster. I won't tell you what the monster is, but the illustration made me laugh out loud. It was so funny.

A lovely tale well told! The illustrations are attractive - clever use of cut-outs (with real eyes peering out at you!) and lively colors that should appeal to young children.
The text is simple and fast, the words are well-chosen, the story grabs you. It sets the dichotomy between the grown-up world and the children's that is so appealing to children (we always root for our camp, don't we...)Yet there is a moral to it that should satisfy all parents - a moral that no one can disagree with: let's ...more

The pictures are different yet wonderful with such bright colors and amazing creativity in construction. I've not seen anything like it before. The story is sweet and compelling with a very important message conveyed without spoiling the fun. My son was very impressed with the way that the pictures had been cleverly put together, especially the 'real photgraph eyes' behind some of the characters. One picture makes great use of a staple remover.
A very impressive overall result. ...more

This book is truly engaging for children and adults alike. Mikolay, Julia and Farina have an adventure of a lifetime and the artwork that accompanies the story helps to the reader to conjure vivid imagery in their own mind.
This book is a fantastic journey into the world of the fairies which I believe any child would love to read again and again. Kudos to Olchawska...she's hit a homerun with Mikolay and Julia Meet The Fairies.
