- Crowd: A witch! A witch! A witch! We found a witch! We've got a witch! A witch! A witch! We have found a witch. May we burn her?
- How do you know she is a witch
- She looks like one.
- Bring her forward.
- I'm not a witch! I'm not a witch !
- But you are dressed as one.
- They dressed me like this. - No, we didn't.
- And this isn't my nose. It's a false one.
- Well? - We did do the nose.
- The nose? - And the hat. But she is a witch !
- Did you dress her up like this? - No, no!
- Yes. A bit.
- She has got a wart.
- What makes you think she's a witch?
- She turned me into a newt!
- A newt?
- I got better.
- Burn her anyway!
- Quiet! Quiet!
- There are ways of telling whether she is a witch.
- Are there? What are they? Tell us. - Do they hurt?
- Tell me, what do you do with witches?
- Burn them!
- And what do you burn, apart from witches?
- More witches! - Wood!
- So why do witches burn?
- 'Cause they're made of wood? - Good!
- How do we tell if she is made of wood? - Build a bridge out of her.
- But can you not also make bridges out of stone?
- Oh, yeah.
- Does wood sink in water?
- No, it floats. - Throw her into the pond!
- What also floats in water?
- Bread. - Apples.
- Very small rocks. - Cider! Great gravy.
- Cherries. Mud. - Churches.
- Lead. - A duck!
- Exactly.
- So, logically--
- If she weighs the same as a duck.
- she's made of wood.
- And therefore?
- A witch!
- A duck! A duck! - Here's a duck.
- We shaIl use my largest scales.
- Burn the witch !
- Remove the supports!
- A witch!
- It's a fair cop.

Reviews for "Real-Life Encounters: A Glimpse into the Faerie Realm"
1. Rebecca - 2 stars
I found "Faeries and Magical Creatures" to be quite underwhelming. The plot was predictable and the characters lacked depth. It felt like a recycled version of every other fantasy book I have read. The writing style was also uninspiring and failed to capture my interest. I was expecting a magical and enchanting story, but sadly, this book fell short of my expectations.
2. Jonathan - 1 star
I am a fan of fantasy novels, but "Faeries and Magical Creatures" was a huge disappointment. The world-building was practically nonexistent, leaving me confused and detached from the story. The characters were one-dimensional, and their actions and motivations were unclear. The writing was bland and lacked descriptive language, making it difficult to visualize the magical elements. Overall, I found this book to be dull and unengaging.
3. Sarah - 2 stars
"Faeries and Magical Creatures" was a letdown for me. The story started out promising, but quickly became repetitive and predictable. The author missed an opportunity to delve deeper into the magical creatures, their origins, and their unique abilities. The dialogue felt forced, and the romantic subplot was cheesy and unrealistic. I was hoping for a more complex and immersive fantasy world, but unfortunately, this book fell flat.
4. Michael - 2 stars
I regret picking up "Faeries and Magical Creatures." The storyline lacked originality and failed to captivate my attention. The characters were flat and uninteresting, and their development felt rushed and shallow. Additionally, the pacing was inconsistent, with long periods of nothing happening and sudden bursts of action that were difficult to follow. The overall execution of this book was disappointing, and I would not recommend it to avid fantasy readers like myself.
5. Emma - 1 star
"Faeries and Magical Creatures" was a complete waste of time. The writing was amateurish and filled with grammatical errors, making it difficult to read. The plot was unoriginal and lacked any surprises or twists. The characters were forgettable and lacked depth, and their actions often made no sense. I had high hopes for this book, but it failed to deliver on every level. I would advise staying away from this poorly executed fantasy novel.
