Join Tiny Jenny, a mischievous fairy born to a family of wrens, as she sets out to find her "real" family.

Mr. and Mrs. Wren are surprised when a tiny, wingless fairy hatches from one of their eggs...but they lovingly name her Tiny Jenny and raise her as their own. 

Tiny Jenny--like all fairies--grows to be a menace in the woods. She digs up squirrel nuts and blocks mole hills. The other forest creatures are not happy. So Tiny Jenny decides it is time to leave her home and seek out her real fairy family. 

But it turns out the fairies are anything but welcoming!

Oh, where does Tiny Jenny truly belong?

"Smith combines elegantly rendered mixed-media images with whip-smart humor and an irrepressible protagonist—the result is a fractured fairy story with a distinctly contemporary sensibility." —Publishers Weekly

"Readers of all ages will enjoy watching Tiny Jenny learn the difference between playfulness and truly bad behavior in this tale of embracing differences and finding your family." —BookPage
