Reviews

My daughter loved these when she was 4. It was her first set of chapter books and we went through several of the sets. She quickly became bored because the exact same thing happens in each story. With a different fairy name and a different set of circumstances yet when a book grows tiresome and boring to a 4 year old..it is pretty lame.

We actually had all 7 books in our set. It's a good way to get a seven-year-old girl to read 7 books in the course of a couple of hours. The seven books are really one story. I didn't read them all, but Rebecca loved them. She even dreams about them. My impression is that they are very sweet, imaginative books that are pure fun. There's no moral lesson as far as I can tell.

These were cute. The writing wasn't fabulous. But, as an 8 year old girl, they're lots of fun, full of magic and adventure, etc. We gave the set to our daughter for Christmas. She and I spent 2 weeks in June reading them together. It was quality time spent with her and I'd do it again with the next girl in a heart beat.

I loved the rainbow magic books when I was 7-10. Im proud to say that I had the most rainbow magic fairy books in my grade. The books are predictable, but to a young girl, there kind of like baseball cards.
