If you have ever thought of visiting a Fairy Castle, this is the perfect opportunity.

Actually, the one twelfth scale castle known as Forget Us Not Castle is part of the collection at the Mini-Time Machine Museum in Tucson, Arizona. It was designed and built by Ron and April Gill of DeWitt, Michigan in 1998. Each of its seventeen rooms has a unique story and use. The fairies and dragons who reside in and visit the castle are a delightful and essential part of the story. There are rooms that are necessary to the daily function of the castle, but there are also many unexpected surprises such as a grotto inhabited by mermaids and a baby dragon hatching room.

Fairy folklore is found in all cultures in one form or another. The author has spun a story about one day at this castle when it magically rises from the bottom of Lough Neagh in Ireland. On this occasion two mortal girls who have the gift of fairy vision are allowed to visit. In addition, we the readers, are invited to tour the castle to view one of the most exquisite buildings in fairydom.

The castle will remain on the surface of the lake for twenty-four hours. A multitude of activities must be accomplished in that time. Photographs of each room and its inhabitants accompany this charming tale of one of the fairies' busiest days.

Whether you believe in fairies or not you will find this fantasy an entertaining journey to a different world. Collectors of miniatures will find the book of special interest with the work of many well known artisans shown in the photographs. Photographs by - Albert Jackman
