אִמָּא שֶׁלָּהּ פֵיָה וְאַבָּא שֶׁלָּהּ עַרְפָּד, וְהִיא קְצָת מִזֶּה וּקְצָת מִזֶּה.
אִיזָדוֹרָה עוֹמֶדֶת לִהְיוֹת שׁוֹשְׁבִינָה בַּחֲתֻנָּה שֶׁל דּוֹדָתָהּ,
וְהִיא כָּל כָּךְ מִתְרַגֶּשֶׁת! אֲבָל כְּשֶׁיֵּשׁ לָךְ בַּת־דּוֹדָה גְּדוֹלָה מִמֵּךְ וְשׁוֹבֵבָה מְאוֹד, שֶׁמּוֹסִיפָה כַּמָּה תַּעֲלוּלֵי קֶסֶם לָאֵרוּעַ, הַיּוֹם הַמְּיוּחָד הַזֶּה לֹא יִהְיֶה מַמָּשׁ מוּשְׁלָם.
הַאִם תַּצְלִיחַ אִיזָדוֹרָה לִדְאוֹג לְכָךְ שֶׁהַסּוֹף יִהְיֶה טוֹב?

מָלֵא־מָלֵא פְּעִילֻיּוֹת כֵּיפִיּוֹת וּדְבָרִים שֶׁאֶפְשָׁר לְהָכִין
וְלַעֲשׂוֹת עִם אִיזָדוֹרָה וְאַרְנָבָרוֹד!

A very cute, naughty (Oh, Mirabella) book about Isadora and her family and a wedding!


A new Isadora adventure and this time her aunt is getting married!! Yep! So a book full of love and sweetness because even sweeter and more fun!

I loved that we could see a lot of new characters, family members, aunts and uncles, friends, and more! I loved that Isadora and Mirabella were bridesmaids and could wear pretty dresses (and throw flowers around). I loved that the aunt whose wedding it was, was a fairy who loves snow/cold! And her dress fit both her flower and cold side perfectly. I loved that we were part of the dressing up and the ceremony!

I am just sighing at Mirabella. You would think that by now she knows. There have been 2 of her own books (at least those are out in Dutch, there are probably more in English, but I read this series generally in Dutch) and a few with her cameoing in Isadora’s books. But no, in this book she wants a piece of cake and what better way than to shrink to tiny size and explore the cake. Yep. I do love the idea, and I wouldn’t have minded if it wasn’t such an important cake for an important and special day. I am happy that she eventually figured out it wasn’t right and that she got a big piece of karma following her idea.

I had a bit of a laugh at Isadora’s baby sister and her adventures with the fruity desserts. I wouldn’t mind floating in a big bowl of fruit. Yum! Though things did get a bit hairy and after that hilarious. Because how do explain a baby sister the size of a pinkie. XD Or how she is sticky.

I am glad that both parents took care of the children (Isadora and Mirabella) and gave them both their portion of punishment. I think it was pretty fair to give them both something to learn that things shouldn’t be done. Maybe Isadora’s was a tad much given that she mostly was trying to stop Mirabella. But I guess her baby sister and what happened to her also counted.

Loved the art! It was just so sweet and cute and those dresses! I definitely would love to wear them!

All in all, despite the naughtiness I really enjoyed this book and flew through it. It was cute, fluffy, and fun! And I want a piece of cake now!

Isadora Moon va al matrimonio è un nuovo volume della serie dedicati ai bambini con quale divertirsi e imparare tante curiosità sui vampiri buoni. In questa storia, suddivisa in brevi capitoletti arricchiti da illustrazioni buffe, la piccola protagonista si ritrova in una festa che, ben presto, diventa davvero un gran pasticcio. Pagina dopo pagina, il lettore può scoprire se Isadora riuscirà anche questa volta a sistemare le cose e garantire il lieto fine agli sposi. https://ilmondodichri.com/isadora-moo...

Having a great time making our way through these

Llevaba mucho tiempo esperando una participación de Bebé Flor de Miel, y por fin la obtengo.

Noté a Isadora más madura, ha aprendido de sus errores, y aunque en esta ocasión igual se ve en problemas, técnicamente no es culpa suya, desmuestra que ya había aprendido la lección, y en está ocasión la desesperación que tiene es mayor, por que es responsable de su hermanita, nuevamente Mirabella hace de las suyas, y tiene su merecido (nada tan grave), y gracias a la Condesa Cordelia, se pueden solucionar parte de los problemas que había ocasionado.

I know some Isadora Moon super fans who will be delighted to have this! When Isadora and Mirabelle are left to their own devices at a wedding what could possibly go wrong? Delicious wedding cakes and magic just don’t mix! But honesty is important (and cake of course!) and Isadora and Mirabelle learn that temptation is a tricky bag to deal with! As ever, the illustrations are wonderful!

Muncaster ups the illustration ante with lots of wedding-related eye candy. The plot, however, is mostly a rerun of two other appearances of Mirabelle: she shrinks Isadora and herself and they get in trouble.

I was really scared about when honey blossom got almost eaten because I had paused at that just before someone got it someone got her so I was really scared and then I am quite upset that Mirabell got sick and I’m quite annoyed with her to that because she ate some of the cake so yeah

I love Isadora Moon and it was fun having the challenges of wanting to do the right thing, trying to protect her sister and Mirabella causing problems. It was really fun with a lot of amazing things to do at the end, including a couple of cool recipes. It was full of chaos and magic with a couple of pretty dresses.
