School Reading List

Costa and Carnegie winning author and artist’s timeless, enchanting picture book, about shopping with the fairies in Silverbell Street.

In Silverbell Street the shops are always open, if you believe in fairies. You can buy a cloak of invisibility or magic lamp, an umbrella that will transport you to the stars, eat flying fairy cakes at the Foxglove Restaurant, or join the fairies as they try on sparkly new dancing shoes and ball gowns and much much more. Familiar giants, fairies and witches will encourage children to find characters hidden in the illustrations.

A beloved picture book, updated and modernised for a new generation.
