2 My favourite «monsters» are Fairies. They are imaginary supernatural creatures which differ from other monsters, as they don’t have a frightening appearance. My favourite «monsters» are Fairies.

3 Fairies are described as beautiful thin women with long hair, usually blonde. Some fairies have wings. My favourite fairy is called Nera. Crystals adorn her silky brown hair. She wears a long blue dress which resembles the sea and she holds a magic rod. She usually rides a unicorn. Nera lives near springs and lakes. She sings in a way that attracts everyone. She can bewitch humans with her songs. Fairies are described as beautiful thin women with long hair, usually blonde. Some fairies have wings. My favourite fairy is called Nera.

According to a legend, Nera was in love with a boy, but he didn’t respond to her love. Since then Nera has changed into a mean fairy, ready to take revenge on men.

5 Stories about fairies were created in times when people lived close to nature. The power of nature fascinated them, but they weren’t always able to explain this power in a logical way. So, they resorted to supernatural explanation. Every strange sound in the forests, every strange feature of water in lakes or rivers gave birth to imaginary beings. That’s why fairies appear in natural surroundings, forests, lakes, rivers or springs. Stories about fairies were created in times when people lived close to nature.

6 Fairies are believed to have supernatural powers, which can help or harm human beings. Most fairy tales present fairies as kind and friendly creatures, ready to solve problems of fairy tale characters. But they can get really angry if a human disturbs their privacy! That’s why many legends mention occasions of people losing their voice or getting mad after observing their beauty in the woods. Nera is an example of how fairies can become dangerous for people.

7 I like Nera because she is very beautiful. Another thing that fascinates me is the fact that she lives near water. Water is my favourite element! The most incredible thing is that I saw her near a spring two years ago! Crystals were hanging from her hair. I will never forget that moment! I like Nera because she is very beautiful.
