Learned about a lot of different faerie and mythological creatures from around the world. I wish there was a pronunciation guide, as there were a lot of strange looking words from other cultures. I was disappointed that there were no creatures from Australia. And though it is an A-to-Z guide, there is no Z (or I, Q, R, or W)!

Cute book, but would have loved a bit more organization. Fairies are presented alphabetically, not by culture, region or even something like common styles of fairy (eg. water fairies, lucky/unlucky fairies. Still great to leaf through!

Started reading this because I am reading the Emily Wilde book. I wish it was organized by location and not alphabetically. I do like the fact that there are a lot of different types included, for it being a small book. I wish there was more to the tales or how similar they are to other cultures. I did like the small sprinkles of pop culture referencing certain fairies.

I knew what the author was aiming for but expanding the fae definition to encompass more cultures ended up feeling like you have no idea what fairies are and just call every mythical creatures fairies.
