Leni Puccio grew up listening to her mother's stories about fairy parties and tangled hair. Those memories inspired her first children's book, Eri and the Fairies about her own daughter's struggle with messy morning hair.
Leni began cooking and planning parties at age 10 with her first apple pie and went on to have a catering business, a restaurant, and teach children grades pre-K through middle school the basics of cooking; always with a touch of whimsy!
Leni is a mother and grandmother who put her knowledge of problem solving into these books and after a long career as a computer engineer and project planner, she has retired to concentrate on playing, and learning along with her grandchildren. She and her husband reside in Longwood, Florida.
Please enjoy this fairy tale and then join us at Leni’s social media for more info on fairies, cooking and, of course, books! https://www.facebook.com/lenipuccio.author and https:/www.lenipuccio.com

Eri and the Fairies: A Tangled Solution is a delightful fairy story with fairy food descriptions. Leni Puccio tells the story of Eri and the two fun-loving fairies, Freddy and Freida, who visit her hair every night. Freddy, Freida, and their friends love to have delicious parties. They also love eating, especially sweet things, and dancing and playing with Eri's beautiful, long silky hair. However, when morning comes, they leave Eri's hair in knots like a tangled bird’s nest. Eri loves the fairies but doesn't like how they turn her hair into a tangled, brittle sagebrush every night. She is determined to find a way to keep the fairies from tying knots in her hair. But will Eri interest the fairies in something other than her hair?
Every page of this delightful rhyming story is gorgeously illustrated. Eri and the Fairies: A Tangled Solution is the first children's book by Leni Puccio, and it is not just a simple story about fairies. It teaches young readers about problem-solving and teamwork. It's fun, engaging, and charming. I was impressed with how many recipes for a fairy party it contains. The recipes left my mouth watering. Little girls with long hair will relate to Eri's problem and root for her. Every little girl interested in stories about fairy parties and tangled hair should read this book. Apart from recipes for a fairy party, the book shows how to plan a successful fairy feast. Young fairy lovers will treasure it and enjoy reading it aloud again and again.
