Maloney, Alison.  Fairyland Magic, illustrated by Patricia Moffett.  48 pages.  Carlton Books, 2010. $19.95.  Be prepared for fairies to fly off the page—literally, with this interactive augmented reality book and a computer with the correct hardware and installation disk.  Even without a computer, this beautifully illustrated book with charm you with its magical depictions of the different fairy folk.  The title reads like a fairy encyclopedia and gives a two page spread with pictures, literary quotes, information and other interesting tidbits about each type of fairy.  Learn more about the familiar fairies, such as the Tooth Fairy, and not so familiar fairies, like Glastigs.  The layout, design, and content both in print and pc, will enchant young readers.  EL-ADVISABLE.  Samantha, librarian.
