This truly has turned into Butterfly-Fairy's book (although it wasn't intended to be), so it does seem only fair to include it. I had to re-write it a bit so that it fit in with the other stories (mostly changing "meadow" to "the wide, wild field" which is used everywhere else in the stories).
I do hope it sells well. Butterfly-Fairy is the only character I've ever written who seems to have come alive and demand more stories about her. It's a very strange feeling - I used to think authors were exaggerating when they talked about some of their characters like they had an external existence, but BF really seems to have a mind of her own. (and she's rather obnoxed that my next collection is aimed at older children and won't have any BF stories in it *at all*.)
