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!
This book contains 3 stories featuring Rachel, Kirsty and Becky the Best Friend Fairy. The mean Jack Frost has stolen 3 special magical items from Becky the Best Friend Fairy: the heart trinket box, which prevents best friends from arguing, the photo album, which helps best friends remember facts about each other, and the BBF charm, which makes sure best friends will always be able to recognise each other. Each short stories follows Rachel and Kirsty as they help Becky retrieve one of the 3 items.
This book is part of the Rainbow Magic series; however, this is a standalone book featuring 3 short stories around one adventure and one fairy. The nature of this book means it can be read at any time, unlike the other Rainbow Magic books, which must be read in order.
The Rainbow Magic books are perfect for young girls to introduce them to chapter books. Each story is short (5-10 minutes) with plenty of illustrations. The stories are adventurous and full of magic with special powers and abilities. Although every book follows the same type of story line, the variety in fairies and obstacles is enough to keep young girls interested as they are introduced to a new fairy in each book, hence the titles of the books.
Ideal for: young children aged 5-8 years old, especially girls.
