Journey: The Ramblings of a Fairy Godparent

"You're an old soul, Journey, and your reason will serve you well, but you mustn't forget to play, sometimes. There is great value in being silly, at least once in awhile."

 

Fairy Godparent Journey travels through a twisted world of fairy tales, solving frivolous puzzles and unmuddling ridiculous messes for those who wish for help. Taking on whatever identity and clothing is required--including many outfits they find far too sparkly for their liking--Journey helps their clients using all of their resources, including the assistance of other peculiar Godparents, a magic bubble wand, and a quick wit.

 

Come along on Journey's, well, journeys, as they and their companions--a color-changing mare, a shapeshifting dray-cart, and a smart-alecky grasshopper--meet Primrose, who made a wish to keep her room free from cobwebs as she slept for a hundred years; Daphne, an unusual frog who is blackmailing a Prince; Fionn, a young boy who was found in a clearing by seven wacky gnomes; and other mostly-familiar characters with peculiar--and sometimes humorous--twists and turns to their stories. 

 

Many of the stand-alone, sequential fairy-tale retellings in this collection feature Own Voices elements, as the author brings their personal lived experience into many of the narratives.

About the Author

C.C. Naughton (she/they) is the author of two fantasy series, The Tales of Twinkle Dingle (humorous fantasy) and the Beneath the Birch Tree saga (fairy tale re-tellings set in Settlement-era Iceland), as well as multiple stand-alone titles and short stories.

Their work is greatly inspired by their first literary loves of fairy tales, folklore, and mythology, and their long-time interest in Settlement-era Iceland. When they are not writing or reading, they spend their time herding cats with their life-partner, making a fairy garden for their tankful of terrestrial snails, sewing weird plushies, and figuring out how their magic wand works.
