About this book
Little House in the Fairy Wood by Ethel Cook Eliot opens a misty door to a world where a lonely boy named Eric finds shelter, friendship, and the secret lives of the fairy folk. Gentle, lyrical, and richly imagined, these linked fairy tales follow Eric’s discovery of a bright little house in the woods and the enchanted community that teaches him about nature, kindness, and belonging.
Rooted in early 20th-century storytelling, Eliot’s voice carries an old-world, pastoral charm that blends whimsy with quiet moral warmth. Episodes range from misty beginnings and fireside gossip to seasonal wanderings, tree mothers, and playful sprites — all evoking folk tradition, the cycles of the natural world, and the comfort of found family. The narrative stays tender and imaginative, perfect for sparking a child’s wonder without ever losing its storybook calm.
Ideal for families, bedtime listening, and anyone who treasures classic children’s fairy tales, Little House in the Fairy Wood is a soothing, timeless audiobook for young listeners and nostalgic adults alike — a gentle invitation to believe in magic and the healing power of the woods.
