They live
beneath the roots of a tree in a very quirky but elegant way. They use all
things natural for furniture, mushrooms for tables and chairs, straw what they
collect from the farmers’ fields, at night for their beds, bright autumn leaves
for bedding and flower petals for rugs. To brighten up their house they use
beautiful little solar lights. Within the forest, beneath each tree lives
another little family in their own unique house.
The Small
Folk choose to live underground and only come out at night as they are
nocturnal mythical creatures who are scared of the giant’s which live above.
Every little
girl dreams of having a real-life fairy to play with, which ,you have now found
out the Small Folk are! That’s why they are mythical creatures. Dad fairies
work all night foraging for food and materials for clothing, mum fairies say at
home making clothes for all the family. This could be up to 6 fairies in each
tree. They also make sure that food is on the table for when the children come
home from school (in the Big Oak Tree) and dad finishes for the night.
Each fairy
has their own pet which could by butterflies, ladybirds, bees and fireflies.
Even though every fairy has their own set of fragile, silky wings they also use
their pets as transport.
The small
folk adult grows as tall as 11cm and when new born the babies are as small as
1cm. They all wear clothes which are camouflaged to help protect and hide them
in the forest from the giants. Each family keeps themselves to themselves but help
other small folk when in danger and in trouble.
Niamh produced this lovely writing for the 'Small folk' blog task.
Well done Niamh.
I really enjoyed reading this!
