my favorite fairy

Total caos! I’m cleaning up my room, throwing stuff away, packing old things, and it’s almost impossible to this enormous task without feeling nostalgic and let out some “oowwww’s” and “aaawwww’s”. And that’s what happen, when I discovered, on a dusty shelf, one of the first books I read in my life!

It was “A Fada Oriana” from Sophia de Mello Breyner Andersen, a famous portuguese writer.

And it’s a really old book! It was a present from my grandfather to my 13 year old mum!

In the last page it has this note “This book, made by Ática in Lisbon, was printed during December, 1964…”

See the cover?

Although it was always treated with care, because I love it!!!! the cover is torn off, and the illustrations are losing ink…So I always said that I would scan his beatiful illustrations to always remember it…

Here they are:

Oriana talking with her fish friend in her forest

Oriana visiting her friend, the Poet!

Oriana was fooled by beauty and the forest was doomed

Oriana lost her wings and went to the city looking for her old friends

the forest creatures tell the fairy that she let them down.

without thinking she tries to save an old lady.

And because she was brave and honest she recovers her wings. It’s a great story for all ages!

These illustrations were made by Bió (? it’s what the book says) and they have a powerful effect on the reader. At least they had a powerful effect on me!
