A note from Fairy Poppilina...

Dear Boys and Girls, Parents and Carers, I am taking twinkle time [a short sabbatical from Fairyland] as I prepare to graduate from the Fairyland Academy. I have been posted to Ariel Books to meet humanfolk and became more acquainted with the stories you, my fellow fairy believers, read and fill your imaginative heads. Every Sunday at 3pm, UNTIL THE RAINBOW DROPS ITS GOLDEN BALL, I will be here reading stories, tapdancing, singing and having fairy story fun! Don't forget to switch on your fairimagination! Can't wait to meet you all and have fun until the dropping of the golden ball!

From director Michael Winterbottom and based on the classic novel by legendary pulp writer Jim Thompson, THE KILLER INSIDE ME tells the story of handsome, unassuming small town sheriff’s deputy Lou Ford (Casey Affleck). A quiet charmer of his idyllic West Texas town, Ford has a simple life and a pretty girl (Kate Hudson) to come home to. But when the job brings him face to face with a gorgeous prostitute (Jessica Alba) on the edge of town, Ford's fragile world cracks – unbridling his own dark urges. In THE KILLER INSIDE ME'S blacker–than–noir universe, nothing is ever what it seems. From the acclaimed director of A MIGHTY HEART and 24 HOUR PARTY PEOPLE, THE KILLER INSIDE ME is a thrill–ride that Stanley Kubrick called "the most chilling and believable first–person story of a criminally warped mind I have ever encountered."

Small towns harbour secrets. Rising, receding and returning like the tides lapping the fictional coastal town of Kinsale, the stories in this collection revolve around Alice and Grace, friends since childhood, who grow to live vastly different lives. Weaving in and around these women is a lattice of interconnecting stories drawing in their husbands, families, neighbours and strangers, each linked to one another by fate or circumstance. Having Cried Wolf is a contemplative and affecting collection – one that marks the arrival of an original literary talent.
