SAUQUOIT, N.Y., Oct. 2, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- A place of magic and wonder, Guardian Meadow is home to pixies and is a land of extreme adventure. The magic and excitement of this land is unleashed in the first installment, or "first wing," of a new book series, Little Guardians: Saving Guardian Meadow (now available through 1stBooks), by Regina Crawford.
Fay Surety is a beautiful pixie, also known as a little guardian, and lives with her sister, Aqua, in magical Guardian Meadow. Barry, another guardian, pledges his love and devotion to her. She's flattered, but has lately heard her name whispered on the wind. What does it mean? It haunts her dreams until the Live Oak Tree, where Barry pledged his love, reveals her fate. The magical tree tells her that she must transcend into the human world, parallel to her own, and help a teenage boy named Elfa Browne. Though she doesn't know any of the details of her mission, Fay accepts.
She disguises herself as a human teenager. With Fay's guidance, Elfa makes new friends, teaches Hector the bully a lesson and becomes enthralled by the local skating competition in his hometown, Gardien Park. Together, Fay and Elfa uncover an amazing secret and return to Guardian Meadow to duel Fiends of Evil (FOE), which threaten the fabric of the pixie's world.
A story of family, togetherness, self-confidence, friendship, teamwork and community, Little Guardians is an amazing, imaginative story filled with love and magic.
Crawford is a wife and mother and lives in upstate New York. She feels family values are an important facet of life, and she attempts to solidify those values with her books. Little Guardians: Saving Guardian Meadow is her first novel. Her second, Little Guardians: Gateway to Mysterious Mountain, will soon be released.
