I read this aloud to my girls (along with my husband for some of it) and they REALLY liked this book. I'm absolutely certain that the "real" flower pedal skirt and the shiny cover had everything to do with it. If your kids like fairies than they will enjoy this light read.
Katie is a lonely girl who lives with her mother in a new housing development. She ends up finding and making some fairy friends and together, they will start the hunt for the birthstones so the fairy friends can return to their home. (this book mainly sets the stages for future books) I'd give it a 3-star rating, but my girls would give it a 5 so i am compromising.
One of my favourites as a kid. We used to fight over who’d check it out at the library. Nice to reread it, it’s such a fun world for kids and I’m happy to finally have it on my bookshelf!
This is another tie-in to the Tinker Bell movie. It's a coloring book that starts with a section of very nice stickers. It's some 48 pages long. A few of the pages are just regular drawing to color in, but most of them have some kind of activity to complete.
Some of the earlier pages also show a different hairstyle for the relatively-newly born Tinker Bell. Lots of things for a young person to have fun with.
Fairies come alive and live in Katie's new dollhouse. Snowdrop, Bluebell, Rosehip and Daisy have been banished from fairyland for fighting amongst themselves. Katie allows them to live in her new dollhouse as they complete the task given them by the Queen fairy. They must save the giant oak tree that is the portal from fairyland to the human world before a housing developer destoys the tree!
I'm surprised Luke chose this book at the library and that they sat through it all. It was a decent simple plot that based on some relatable norms of childhood like picking up your toys and obeying your mom and making friends. They enjoyed it!
