Small Persons With Wings by Ellen Booraem (author) (US edition)

A witty, intelligent story tracking Mellie Turpin’s mission to save both her family and the mystical magic of the Parvi: enchanting (yet annoying) three-inch-small persons with wings! Mellie’s family has a long history of providing sanctuary for the Parvi in return for getting to keep a magical moonstone. But problems, perils and high drama fill every page once the Parvi start having trouble with their magic and the moonstone is nowhere to be found! Mellie is just one of the many brilliantly depicted characters in this charming tale, which combines unexpected twists with a fast-paced plot and an exciting writing style.
