I would love to have more sleepovers

I liked this book because it was one of the special edition books for the Rainbow Magic collection. In the special edition books the fairies are the leaders of the fairy groups, and they also have to find three of the magic objects. In this book the magic objects are the magic snack box, the magic sleeping bag, and the magic game bag. All the fairies only have three magic objects. -by Felicity

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!

Another fairy book my daughter and I finished and this one was done in a couple hours!!! She loves the special edition ones because she gets excited to find all the letters through the book and unscrambling them. This was also a great one because what child wouldn't love a sleepover in a museum?! Overall another good fairy book and can't wait to see which one she chooses next. (We don't really read them in any particular order, just whatever she is in the mood for.)

Rachel and Kristy are having a sleepover at the museum. but Selena the sleepover fairy tells them that the goblins are causing trouble again. Selena told them that the goblins took Selena’s three magical objects. Rachel and Kristy are going to help Selena find the objects. This book is really good. I don’t really like fairies but when I read this I started to like fairies and I read more books of the series.

Selena makes sure that sleep overs are fun without bad things.

[Kylie Abecca · Rating 4 out of 5]

A great extension to the Rainbow Magic series. The language is slightly more advanced to assist young readers in improving their reading abilities.

Rainbow Magic Series - Selena the Sleepover Fairy

Our emerging readers are going to absolutely cherish this book. With easy vocabulary, large font and bright illustrations this is a winner for our new chapter readers.

With her 3 magical objects – the magical sleeping bag, an enchanted games bag and a sleepover snack box, it is Selena the Sleepover Fairy’s job to make all sleepovers exciting. Selena ensures the night will be fun, fair and full of giggles.

When her magical objects are stolen by the nasty Jack Frost and his naughty goblins, Rachel and Kirsty know they must help Selena get them back. Without them, the girl’s giant sleepover at the National Museum will be ruined. It is a race against time – will Rachel and Kirsty manage to return all Selena’s magic objects to her?

The Rainbow series by Daisy Meadows are always full of magic and charm, and Selena the Sleepover Fairy will not let any young girl down. Considering a sleepover is any child’s favourite, this book will not fail to delight.

Every page is splashed with colour and clever illustrations- you can almost smell the nasty goblins!
I am sure every young girl will enjoy Selena the Sleepover Fairy. The easy to read text ensures early confident readers can read along without any difficulties. (And the added bonus – we get a sneak peak at the first chapter of, Mia the Bridesmaid Fairy!)

Happy Reading.

We stumbled upon this series at the library, and my girls loved it. I read this entire book to them in one day, and they immediately wanted to go back to the library to get more. I especially liked how the main characters in the book are respectful to their parents and older people, which is rare in children's stories.

[Caitlin · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is the best rainbow magic book I've read.
Five out of five for me.
Sleepovers are inportent to me because I don't get them that often so reading books about it brings back memories of them.
Its very easy to read this book (because it's an eary readers rainbow magic book).
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[Ray · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book was okay.
It's way below my reading level and that's why I didn't like it that much.
For a younger girl, it would be great.
But, I did love the sleepover part!

[Leslie · Rating 4 out of 5]

My first Rainbow Magic book! This series flies off the shelves in the library and is just right for early chapter book readers. Cute!

[Sarah Hay · Rating 3 out of 5]

Great read aloud for K-2, or for independent readers grades 2-5. Part of a big series, so if they like one there are LOTS more.

This is 1 of my favourite Rainbow Magic books! I just love the setting so much! The goblins were really funny, and so was Jack Frost when he ran away after seeing the ‘scary’ shadow😂
