Fada Moranga loves canopies!
A tent canopy is a perfect hideaway for dreaming, reading, or playing house!
It is the perfect place for little knights and princesses to hold court.
A magical retreat in which to find peace and quiet!

Munkebakken House
THE AUTHOR
with his italian Whippet ZaffiraRui Paes is a Portuguese artist, born in Mozambique. He studied at the Escola de Belas Artes in Oporto and completed an M.A. in painting at the Royal College of Art in London. He now lives in London and Suffolk.
His work, which includes murals and designs for the theatre, is represented in private collections throughout the world, including the historical Munkebakken house in Oslo, Norway. Lotsa de Casha written by Madonna was his first illustrated book.
Rui was 7 when he was given a box of crayons and started to draw. He escaped to his secret little island, his hideaway, where he would draw and stay for hours. At home, Rui and his siblings could draw on the walls with a piece of chalk (his parents had painted the corridor walls in black).
Animals puzzled him and he had quite a few that lived close to his house. He used to carry a sweet little squirrel inside his shirt almost everywhere. Monkeys were the most intriguing to him – “their hands are so animated and expressive - and when you catch their eye you really expect to hear a little voice telling you something funny or, sometimes, quite profound.”

Fada Moranga loves Woodling Faeries!
“There is a special part in The Whisper Wood,
the vegetation in this part is very dense
and it is a bit misty and humid.
There are lots of beautiful ferns
and all kinds of green coloured mosses lie
as a warm carpet on the forest ground.
In this magical part humans are rarely seen,
but if you should ever find yourself in these parts,
and if you are very, very quiet,
you might just catch a glimpse
of a tiny Woodling Faerie Leaf Baby.
Often it lies all curled up
in an old bird’s nest
or sometimes hanging in its Woodling Faerie Cocoon.
And if you are very lucky
you can even see them playing with other Woodling Faeries. “
