Lily was in her garden, which was one of the most beautiful spots in Pixie Hollow. Everyone was busy and happy and hard at work.Įveryone, that is, except Lily, a garden-talent fairy. It tickled the wings of fairies and sparrow men throughout Pixie Hollow. It bent the stems of the primroses by the courtyard. Now it is time for Lily’s tale.…Ī LIGHT BREEZE whispered through the long grasses by the pond. But we are not telling the story of the egg here. For as long as Mother Dove’s egg stays well and whole, no one in Never Land will ever grow old.

She sits on her egg, watching over the fairies, who in turn watch over her. Not far from the Home Tree, nestled in the branches of a hawthorn, is Mother Dove, the most magical creature of all.

You see, Pixie Hollow is the Never fairies’ kingdom, and each fairy who lives there has a special, extraordinary talent. Some of them can do water magic, others can fly like the wind, and still others can speak to animals. Follow that sound and you’ll find Pixie Hollow, the secret heart of Never Land.Ī great old maple tree grows in Pixie Hollow, and in it live hundreds of fairies and sparrow men. When you arrive, you might hear something like the tinkling of little bells. IF YOU HEAD toward the second star on your right and fly straight on till morning, you’ll come to Never Land, a magical island where mermaids play and children never grow up.
