Artemis Fowl

Artemis Fowl is 12 year old genius who decides to kidnap a fairy to restore his family fortune. He does this by stealing the book of fairy laws which every fairy carries. He finds a weak fairy that has lost her magic and has many years of alcohol poisoning and he makes a deal with her to borrow the book for 30 minutes.
