DULCIE HOVERED outside the Home Tree. She was trying to figure out which way to go.

“Eggs, eggs, eggs,” she muttered to herself.

Fresh eggs were delivered to her kitchen every morning. Dulcie just used them. She didn’t know anything about getting them.

Where did egg-collecting fairies go? She felt a little embarrassed admitting it, but she had no idea.

I have to find an egg collector, Dulcie thought, and follow her, just like I did Maisy.

She hurried to the Home Tree lobby. She sat down on a toadstool chair and pretended to relax.

One by one, fairies and sparrow men fluttered past. Half an hour went by before Dulcie spied Colette, an egg-collecting-talent fairy. She was carrying a cushioned basket half her size.

“She’s collecting eggs! Right now!” Dulcie said.

Dulcie trailed Colette. Every time Colette stopped, Dulcie ducked behind a leaf. Every time Colette flew, so did Dulcie.

Finally, Colette came to the dairy barn, where the dairy mice lived. She flew a little beyond that to a grove of trees. Dulcie followed.

“I never knew these were here,” Dulcie whispered. The trees were saplings, just four feet tall. They were covered with fluffy white blossoms and stood in a semicircle.

Robins twittered all around. Colette flew among them. She paused by a nest filled with eggs and put her ear close to one.

Even Dulcie knew that fairies used only empty eggs. They were eggs that wouldn’t hatch. “She’s listening for baby chicks!” Dulcie said to herself. Colette lifted a pale blue egg into her basket. Dulcie had used robins’ eggs in lots of her recipes. They made delicious cakes and cookies.

Then Colette pulled a balloon carrier from behind a tall fern. She unwound the cord from the anchor root. Fairy dust–filled balloons lifted the carrier high off the ground.

Colette carefully pushed two more eggs into the balloon carrier. Pulling the carrier, she flew toward the Home Tree.

Dulcie now knew which nest had the empty eggs. But she wanted to check on the other ones. She flew to another tree and peered inside a nest.
