Foul Play in Fairyland is a fun-filled frolic in fairyland which is fraught with mystery. This fully illustrated picture book mystery for young kids is all about Dickory Doc, a detective who works the mean streets of fairyland. This tough detective saves the day for the likes of the Three Little Pigs, Little Red Riding Hood, and Peter of Peter and the Wolf, not to mention the Big Bad Wolf himself. The point of the story is to have some silly fun with fairy tale characters that young children can recognize and to dispel an old stereotype. As with all of Barbara's other original full color illustrated picture books, this goofy fairy tale detective story concludes with a bonus draw and tell story that relates to the detective theme of the picture book. It also includes instructions and a big traceable drawing to help any novice learn how to use this traditional storytelling technique to successfully tell a draw and tell story. Draw and tell stories are simple stories for young children. These drawing tales are very easy to use and require no special materials or experience. As each draw and tell story is told, its characters and objects are sketched onto a single sheet of paper, while children look on. These simple elements build up on the drawing until, by the time the story ends, a composite picture representing the subject of the story has emerged, much to the children's delight. The draw and tell form of storytelling is great for parents, teachers and children's librarians. Author Barbara Freedman-De Vito has been creating and using draw and tell stories for many years in her work as a children's librarian, freelance storyteller, teacher and workshop leader.
