Rachel and Kirsty were having a royal sleep over at the golden castle, and they met the princess fairies there. Eva the enchanted ball fairy lost her tiara and the golden palace was having a ball at the end of camp week but Rachel and Kirsty found that the dance was hard because the tiara was missing from Eva. But then they helped Eva find the tiara and they were able to do the dance. It was funny when Eva was still missing the tiara, people were stepping on peoples' toes and falling over because they could not dance well.

At the golden palace Eva's tiara is missing. The ball is at risk! It is going to be a flop!

I liked that one of the character his name is jack frost and his goblins were bad and stole a crown. Then jack frost gave it back and was invited to a ball in fairyland!!

2.5 Stars!
Obviously, because I’m me, I have to read Book #4 first, and then jump right to this last one. I have high hopes that I’ll actually get to learn why Jack Frost is being particularly evil in this series specifically.(And there’s your first mistake, Diya, because we don’t learn shit.)
I would’ve given this book five stars just for having Rachel and Kirsty be dance partners and learn the waltz together… if it wasn’t so annoying! Literally, 95% of the mess that Jack Frost creates is because the fairies don’t invite him to shit. I know he’s the worst and we shouldn’t reward bad behaviour, but please put us all out of our misery and at least send him the invite. I’m so sick of him getting pissy about being left out and then taking that out on the human world instead of the real culprits - King Oberon and Queen Titania.(Maybe shoot your ice beams at them instead of Rachel and Kirsty, because yes, he tried to shoot ice beams at them again.)
On top of that, Jack Frost didn’t even learn a lesson! I have no issues when he gets rewarded at the end, provided he learn a valuable lesson. He did not deserve to go to the ball. You know who did though? That one goblin who had the decency to say thank you to Eva after she provided them with transportation.
I don’t know why I was so focused on this plot point, but I love that they brought back the dresses that Phoebe the Fashion Fairy had made for them in her book. (Talk about a throwback!) At first, I was like, why would you wear dresses from like, 50 billion books ago? But then I got over it because at least we’ve acknowledged that some time has passed since then. Everyone say thank you to Sue Mongredien for putting in that the girls have grown taller! (Even though it’s implied that these dresses will always fit them because they’re magic.)
Eva giving the girls an upgraded version of those dresses was a nice touch. (Does anyone else think Phoebe’s the type of fairy to be offended by that? Because I think she absolutely is.)
While we’re on the topic of dresses, I really liked Eva’s design! I think it might be my favourite of all the Princess Fairies, and I liked that detail of Kirsty mentioning Cinderella when Eva’s design makes her look like Cinderella in pink. The gowns she made for Rachel and Kirsty were gorgeous and I just know that if I had read this at six years old, I would’ve been in awe. And I like how the other Princess Fairies changed into gowns too. I think the only fairy I’ve ever seen wear something other than what’s on her book cover was Flora the Dress-Up Fairy.
random thoughts that I wouldn’t have had if I had read all the previous books first:
-If the ball that Jack Frost was initially not invited to was in honour of the Princess Fairies, was it like a coronation, or were they just getting their wands or something?
-All my love to Queen Titania for coming in clutch by messing with Jack Frost’s spell so the tiaras are all redirected to the Golden Palace.
-I didn’t realize that Jack Frost was going to stay in that tower from Elisa’s book the entire time. I actually kind of love that because there’s no way for the other kids or even the organizers to enter that area since it’s so dangerous. Rare moment of intelligence from Jack Frost.
-Ah, so even though Jack Frost has the tiara, he still can’t have the perfect ball because the magic only responds to Eva. (Did he even try to do anything when he had Elisa’s tiara?)
-Rachel has to have a death wish because she got hit with an ice beam and nearly froze to death three books ago.
Celebrity Appearances:
-The Dance Fairies, helping the girls with the waltz off-screen.
-The Music Fairies, performing at the ball, but for some reason not all of them (It was just Poppy, Fiona, Danni and Sadie.)
I want to end off by saying that the only reason this book even got two stars from me was because Rachel asked Kirsty to dance with her, and I want to frame that last image of them dancing together at the ball. It was a perfect ending!

Daisy Meadows and her fairies are my childhood. I collected so many in my youth, knowing all the fairies and their importance, and sticking with the two special girls who go to be a part of the magic.
Years ago I had to give my beautiful collection away, now still part of my childhood school where little girls are picking their favourite fairies and playing pretend. It's fun to hear stories from my old teachers telling me how over the years so many students have grabbed these books and fallen in love with the tales of two girls, Jack Frost and the fabulous glittering magic that is the fairies.
On Christmas last year, my sister surprised me with a boxset of these books, but cause you cannot collect these darlings as easily anymore. I was over the moon!
If anyone has a little one who needs a little magic in their life, wants to read and needs a big creation to be hooked on...it is Daisy Meadows!

It was a good book but not something I would read all the time, mainly because I wouldn't learn anything from it. The book was definitely for kids and not someone my age but the idea of the book wasn't too bad. I wouldn't recommend the book unless you're into fairies and princesses because that's all this book was about along with some goblins who were supposed to be the "bad guys". I rate this book a 3 out of 5, and I don't think I would read this book again.

This is a small chapter book. I was able to finish it with my kids in about 30 minutes. It has good moral lessons like friendship, working together as a team, and being kind to everyone, even those who are unkind to you. It has black-and-white pictures on most of the pages, which my kids liked.

its Rachel and Kirsty final day at Golden Palace, but Eva's magic tiara is still missing ! The girls must go to Fairyland and persuade icy Jack Frost to return the tiara.
Then the girls and the seven princess Fairies will be able to enjoy the enchanted ball!!

This is one of my daughter's favorites from the fairy series.

This series, even when read out of order and piecemeal, is cute and engaging. My five year old daughter likes to read them and will even listen attentively for the entire 60 pages!

I found this book super interesting because it helps children understand the true meaning of what an imagination really looks like. They understand the fact that the imagination is real and there can be an imagination through anything and children can about believe anything with imagination.

I thought that the book Eva The Enchanted Ball Fairy was a good book. If you like books that are fantasy then I recommend this book to you. I especially like the part where I really liked this book.

Cute and fun with the right mix of magic and villains that aren't too scary.

So glad I finally finished reading this series with my girls. As an adult I find these books annoyingly repetitive, but I think young children find this same quality to be reassuring.

February 10, 2015There's not a whole lot of substance to these books. They're pretty superficial. They drive me crazy, but my daughter loves them.

October 13, 2017I tell my students to ask questions about the books they’re reading to deepen understanding. The question they always ask about these books is, “Why did Jack Frost steal the [tiaras/gems/baby animals/whatever it is with these fairies].” Having read two of these now, I can confidently say I have no idea what the answer to that question is.
