But the King of the Fairies was annoyed that crumbs never remained from the very best cakes baked by the talented baker woman so he orders the fairies to capture her and bring her down to the Fairy Kingdom. The resourceful woman requests items from her kitchen at home, where her bewildered husband looks on as utensils and ingredients float out of the window, borne by invisible fairies. Eventually she strikes a clever bargain with the impatient Fairy King to win her freedom and return home in return for sharing her tasty cakes.Award-winning author, Heather Forest teaches young readers about resourcefulness, patience and the importance of family in this whimsical tale, illustrated by Susan Gaber. One reviewer praises, \"The story is quite clever and highlights what lengths a parent will go to keep family together, but also be kind to others.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Heather Forest\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1939160715\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781939160713\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e August House Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/07\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.55h x 8.93w x 0.24d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.4\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e14446 \/ Woman Who Flummoxed the Fairies\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/30\/2013","brand":"Heather Forest","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43937667055871,"sku":"9781939160713","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_b1c3f884-93b5-435a-9e5a-df5eb96ab682.jpg?v=1681431375","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-woman-who-flummoxed-the-heather-forest-9781939160713","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
