Emma and the Fairy Stirrups

Emma and the Fairy Stirrups is a delightful children's book about two young girls, Emma and Rosie, who visit their grandma's farm. They discover that fairies are responsible for knotting the horses' manes to use as stirrups for nighttime rides. Every day, Grandma must brush out these knots. Emma decides to confront the fairies, asking them to brush out their "stirrups." The fairies explain that the brushes are too big for them. Emma creates tiny brushes for the fairies, who gratefully use them, making the horses' grooming much easier for Grandma and Emma and Rosie when they come visit.
