Bookroo's summary

Lily, a fairy with mermaid roots, feels trapped by her need to stay near water. While her friends explore distant lands, she's left behind. Her loyal frog friend, Splash, tries to lift her spirits, but Lily yearns for more. Determined to help, her fairy friends devise a magical surprise that could allow Lily to venture beyond her pond. Will their plan succeed, or will Lily remain bound to her watery world? Dive into a tale of friendship, magic, and the quest for freedom in a whimsical forest setting.

From the publisher

The second installment of the Wild Fairies series, Lily’s Water Woes, follows wild fairy (and mermaid) Lily, who is feeling left out. While her fairy friends get to travel to beautiful beaches and lush forests, Lily is always stuck at home, unable to be away from the water for very long. Her froggy pal, Splash, tries his best to cheer her up, but Lily still wishes she could stay out late and play like the other fairies. Wanting to help their friend, the fairies come together to build an awesome surprise for Lily that just might make it easier for her to travel beyond her small pond. The Wild Fairies series features a group of magical fairy friends who love playing and learning in the beautiful and bountiful forest they call home. With their reliable sidekick critters alongside, Daisy, Thistle, Heather, Celosia, Poppy, Dahlia, Indigo, and Lily care for the natural world around them using their unique and diverse set of special skills. Infused with ecology, botany, and magic, the wild fairies’ whimsical adventures will inspire in kids a sense of wonder and curiosity for nature, as well as inform them about the wildflowers and critters behind the fairies through young-reader friendly nonfiction pages in the back of each book.
