LITTLE ANNIE’S DREAM; OR, THE FAIRY FLOWER.
In a moonlit glade where fireflies flicker like tiny lanterns, a community of fairies makes its home among roses, lilies and mossy stones. The Queen of the Flowers gathers her court beneath a wild rose, inviting each sprite to share a tale while the night wind carries the soft music of hare‑bells. Their stories weave together the simple joys of sunrise, the hush of dew, and the quiet worries that linger when shadows creep across the meadow.
The opening fable introduces three little fairies—Daisy, Primrose and Violet—who discuss the looming threat of the Frost‑King, a cold force that endangers their blossoms. Through gentle dialogue they explore the power of love, generosity and hope even when darkness gathers. As the queen calls for counsel, the listeners feel the tender resolve of these tiny guardians, learning that compassion can brighten even the bleakest garden. The narrative glides with lyrical prose, inviting listeners to drift into a world where every petal holds a lesson.
