Recipient of a LIVING NOW BOOK AWARD! Candidates for the Living Now Book Awards are books written and designed to help shape our lives through creative ideas.

Fairy Houses and Beyond! by Barry and Tracy Kane proves that Fairy Houses are as varied as a child’s imagination and as limitless as the wonders of nature. Takes readers on a magical pictorial tour of the evolving world of fairy house neighbourhoods, coastal communities, intricate interiors and even a fairy house spa.

Fairy Houses and Beyond! is the second pictorial tour co-authored by Tracy and her husband, Barry Kane. Using photographs of actual fairy houses throughout the country, it shows what can be done with a little creativity and the natural materials that surround us.

Tracy writes about the experience of building fairy houses:

• A way to explore and participate in the wonders of nature
• To bring people closer together as they collaborate in an activity with nature
• An opportunity for all ages to create, invent and learn.

She continues, “Building fairy houses encourages children to explore the outdoors and inspires awareness of the natural environment. In era when children are spending too much time indoors watching TV, playing computer and video games, building fairy houses is an activity that reconnects kids with nature. A fairy house can be simple or elaborate, colorful or camouflaged, impromptu or intricately designed. The only rule is not to harm living things or the fairies won’t come.”
