The fairies are in trouble, as their queen has been captured by a wicked witch. Dauber decides to help the fairies and sets out on a quest to rescue the queen. Along the way, he encounters a variety of magical creatures and faces many challenges. With the help of his friends and his own courage and ingenuity, Dauber is able to defeat the witch and save the queen. The book is filled with charming illustrations and is a delightful tale of adventure, friendship, and bravery. It is suitable for children aged 6-10 and is sure to capture the imagination of young readers.1912. Poet, novelist, dramatist and journalist, Masefield's literary career was a varied one. He went to sea as a youth and his first volumes of poems earned him the title of Poet of the Sea. He was a prolific writer, publishing poetry and novels as well as taking on editorial tasks. In 1930 he became Poet Laureate, a post he retained until his death 37 years later. The Dauber is fashioned after a man (by trade a house painter) Masefield knew who was determined to become an artist and to paint ships on the sea. To this end he gave up his work as a house painter and shipped himself to sea as a ship's painter, or, as sailors call it, a Dauber. Masefield's The Daffodil Fields is an example of how the long poem can and frequently does work as a novel.
