We are Kipling fans, dyed in the wool, but had never heard of this gem. Two children enact "Midsummer Night's Dream" twice in a row at the foot of "Pook's Hill," on their farm. This conjures "Pook," who is ... Puck, who "jests to Oberon!" From this inspired beginning ensues the summer's adventures for these two children, who in their playful rambles continue to encounter "Pook," or "Puck," the most enchanting (literally) companion ever encountered. In these summer adventures Puck introduces them to figures from English history whose stories, or rather histories, took place on what is now this very farm. The book is a delight, clever and endearing, unexpectedly moving, utterly wonderful.

Specialized fairy story
It's not exactly exciting, but if you like historical events then it is quite interesting. I read it for the life of the Picts having been on Orkney and visited Skara Brae and Maeshowe.
