I am HERE for academic essays on clothes of flower fairies and Beatrix Potter characters.

I had Cicely Mary Barker's alphabet on my wall as a child and adored it, though a bit disappointed in H. I feel I'm an F kinda gal.

“I’m everyone’s darling: the blackbird and starling
Are shouting about me from blossoming boughs;
For I, the Lent Lily, the Daffy-down-dilly,
Have heard through the country the call to arouse.”
