Quatre catégories pour le Petit Peuple…
Katharine Briggs précise qu’il existerait quatre catégories constituant le Petit Peuple:
1. TROOPING FAERIES — faeries that travel in groups.
2. SOLITARY FAERIES — faeries that tend to live alone or are found by themselves, such as, the Brownie.
3. MERMAIDS, WATER AND NATURE SPIRITS — faeries that are tied to an element.
4. GIANTS, MONSTERS AND HAGS — all the rest of the faeries that don’t fit into one category!
