February 25, 2022Unfortunately this gave off very straight vibes, so I will not have a plethora of quotes to share. I will write this review in a different way.
*NOTE THIS IS (MOSTLY) A JOKE*
Right off the bat, we start with action. Ms. Meadows (I am aware that she is a ghost writer but for the sake of my sanity bear with me) does not mess around with her action. Instantly we follow Rachel and Kirsty on a dramatic adventure. First, a bee starts to chase them. They end up inside a stranger's honey garden thingy, but it's okay because they all get free honey.
Let me just say that the world building is excellent. We are given clear, concise descriptions of the world that I truly believe aspiring book nerds will enjoy. It also uses all five sense, not just what the girls see. It shows, but doesn't tell.
The antagonists in this book are rather dreadful. Their foul language may harm innocent children's ears, so we should be mindful of that, but that is the only fault I can find in them. Nevertheless, their ugliness may scar children too. If your child is sensitive, please consider another book such as the Hunger Games or H2O.
The main characters are admirable and wise leaders that will do wonderful things when they grow up. Rachel and Kirsty can be good examples to young children of how to do things.
All in all, I would say that this is a rather good book. I highly recommend for people who want to question their childhood.

I suppose it's fine in an innocuous early-elementary way, but there's really not much to these fairy series books. My daughter is in love with fairies right now, and in love with these books, and begged me to read this book after she finished it. So I did. And now I have. The fairy theme will be attractive to draw in readers, like my daughter, which makes them worthwhile. But there isn't much in the way of character or plot development, or motivation, or anything, really, other than a description of what happens to the characters told through lots of dialogue. I'll let my daughter just tell me about the rest of the series.

A number of years ago, I was in a bookstore perusing the chapter book section to see what was popular at that time. When a young girl presented a book from this series to her mother, the mom refused to buy it and told her daughter she had read "enough fairy books" and had to select something else. The child was disappointed and I thought the mother was being too strict, possibly even preventing her daughter from developing a lifelong love of reading. Now that I've read four books from this series myself, I've completely changed my mind - kudos to that mother for steering her child in a better direction.
The argument is that children want to read these books, and at least they are reading something. Normally I would agree with that - any reading is better than none at all. But these chapter books are such poor examples that I'm actually not convinced that reading this is better than not reading anything. At least Captain Underpants exemplifies characterization, contains humor, has a plot, and follows proper story structure. All of those elements are missing from here.
So what attracts children to the books in this series like a dog to bacon? In every one of the four books of this series that I read, the two insta-friends get fairy dust sprinkled over them, shrink to fairy size, and grow wings. Never mind that it only lasts for an instant, and they don't have any real adventures while impersonating fairies. The books in this series capitalize on every little girl's desire to be a fairy, every child's wish to be magical. It's crass commercialization at its best. With zero literary value.

Just as whimsy and magical as I remembered. 5 stars based purely on nostalgia, not literary merit 🧚🏼

All hail Queenie the Bee.

I loved this as a child. Yes I know I am a boy and this should appeal to girls only, but fairies (kind and beautiful on the outside, dark on the inside) always fascinated me. I was a strange kid.

Book Stats
Cover: ★★★ (The outfit definitely matches a sunny weather vibe, but because of the white clouds in the background, the combination of yellow/white/blue isn't very eye-catching.)
Story: ★★★.5
Overall Rating: ★★★.5 (rounded down)
Ghostwriter: Sue Bentley
Most Memorable Part(s): All the mentions of bees and giving me a craving for honey. 😋
Review:
Third book in the series and definitely more exciting than the second book, all action and no exposition. This time around, I truly envy the setting, as I'd love the fields + cottage vibes = cottagecore and fairies!
Ahem, but anyway, the story itself has the girls finding Sunny the yellow fairy, and she's actually quite well protected in a hive of bees, without much about how she really got there. Still, this time around the girls actually have to face off against the goblins, and while it's low-stakes and the goblins aren't exactly a threat, it's still more action than in book 2. Also, it's a pretty cool warning that the weather gets worse and frost shows up as a warning for when the goblins are around!

This is in the middle of a series for rainbow fairies. It’s a quick read aimed at young girls, like my daughter. I had a few issues with its premise.
Stranger danger? What parents leave their children with old ladies they don’t know? (Other than to progress plot obviously).
And what beekeepers leave two young girls alone with bee hives to get a glass of water, then randomly remember they need to go buy fish for their cat?

(Mommy's review from 9/26/10)
I would recommend these to any little girl. I can't believe how interested Julia is in them and how fast she's flying through them. We usually read about a half of one of these books in a day and that's in addition to the reading she does during the day with the shorter books. I have a feeling we'll be going through all of the authors books in the next few years. Or months at this rate.
The plots usually stay fairly similiar to the previous one, Kristy and Rachel are trying to find a different fairy in each book. This book was spent finding Sunny the Yellow Fairy with Ruby the Red and Amber the Orange tucked safely away after having already been rescued.
Each is a little different in where the fairies are found and what the girls go through on the way. Julia loves the ending of each because of the cliff-hanger - you can actually see her excitement!
The beginning of each is pretty cool too - there is a map which stays true to the story so readers can see where the girls cottages are in relation to where the fairies were found, etc.
I don't know how plausible it would be but the only thing that irks me is that besides the first book they each seem to try to be stand alones. There's a brief run down of Jack Frost and what happened to the fairies and the girls are also described with last names and what have you. It just seems to be done for no reason because these can't be read alone. Even the first one can't be read alone without the others coming after. Well, for those literals out there - they can be read alone but it would seriously take all of the fun out of it. I wish Meadows would have just skipped that whole thing and let it continue on. If someone wants to read #4 alone without reading the first three that's their problem and let them solve it.

Cute story about bees and fairies. Just lovely (so long as you're not bothered by the shallowness of all the female characters! In fact, Jack Frost is the only character with any sort of complexity - but then I always do love a villain...) On to Fern the green fairy next.

Do NOT read these books unless if your five. There sooooooo boring! When I read them I just looked at the pictures!

Saffron (the yellow fairy) was quite good. I don't know who the hell Sunny is though??
July 28, 2021
Listened to this with my little sister and she enjoyed it
May 30, 2024
Loved it x
December 18, 2024
While I don’t think that Saffron’s book had the same impact on me that Amber’s book did, I still really enjoyed it!
Given that this is the first series, the fairies all have such distinct personalities that complement each other really well and create this legitimate sisterly bond that I don’t think exists with other fairies. Saffron is very little sister coded, but in a different way than Amber. I think Amber to me screams second-eldest/middle child, whereas Saffron has the most dramatic bratty younger sister energy, I think she’s just so chaotic and unserious. When we first meet her, Saffron is literally chilling inside a beehive, not a care in the world for the damage her absence has been causing (at least Amber was trapped inside a clam). Or when Rachel’s trying so hard to hide her and she’s complaining - none of the fairies now have this much personality. Oh, Saffron is also the most irresponsible fairy we’ve ever had, but I kind of love it because it just fits her personality. This girl forgot her wand by the birdbath she swam into so her wings would no longer be sticky, and it’s one thing after another with her, she’s like an agent of chaos. Her actions caused the goblins to get their hands on her wand and now her bee friend Queenie is hurt trying to protect her and get her wand back.
And terms of how Ruby and Amber complement her, Ruby is so motherly that you can’t see her as anything but the eldest sister, given the way she instantly comforted Queenie and told her all these wonderful things like how brave she was for protecting Saffron against the goblins. And Amber’s the crafty one with all the solutions - I like how she was the one to mend Queenie’s wing, and how that also provided such an interesting piece of Rainbow Magic lore.
I also loved seeing the girls’ quick-thinking in this book! They were just so sneaky and had a solution to every problem, especially Rachel.
Rachel being the one to remind Saffron that like, ‘hey you need to get your shit together because I’m not dealing with a world completely devoid of colour and warmth just because you wanna hang out with bees, you can do that your own time when the world isn’t in jeopardy, now get up.’ (Very in character of her.)
Rachel Walker the icon that you are. I would not have shoved a honey-covered fairy into my pockets, I really hope someone magicked her shorts clean.
I wanted to talk about the art and the goblins as well. There’s a simplicity to the old art that I think while I can appreciate, it just makes me laugh now. I don’t think you understand just how weird the goblins look! (The mini shadows of them running away while still arguing was pretty funny though.) Anyway, same as with Amber’s book, this is the only series where Jack Frost and his goblins should be viewed as villains. They actually did seem pretty scary and I thought their introduction was great! Current goblins are not like this at all. (However, I will say that I think Isabelle the Air Fairy’s book mentioned that fairy wands can do no harm, but maybe that was lore that they added later because the goblins in this book did cause harm with Saffron’s wand.)

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!

Miss 3 was very excited to get to this book in the series because sunshine yellow is very passionately her favourite colour.
I was slightly concerned about the way the parents (can’t remember if it was Mr and Mrs Tate or Walker, they’re very interchangeable) so readily left the girls (one of which is not even their daughter, and they’ve only known her for three days!) with Miss Merry, after meeting her for about two minutes. I was rather concerned for our girls safety, but lucky Miss Merry lived up to her name and all was well.
Anyways, we loved it still and Miss 3 has named her felt baby faerie ‘Bibi Saffron’ in our yellow faeries honour 💛🐝

Read a bunch as a kid.
Once again, super fun adventure.
So Daisy Meadows is a pseudonym for 4 writers, including Linda Chapman.
I think she (Linda) wrote the Rainbow Fairies series at the very least, because knowing she contributed, and looking through that lens, it practically screams her work (I recently re-read the Stardust series and there are writing similarities).
Can’t wait for the next ones!

Hi, so this is flawless

I don't like that the girls in this story have been instructed to lie to all adults around them. The story is fine otherwise. It is just not a story that interests me. I'm trying to decide if I would recommend this to my kids. By the time they are old enough to not be influenced by the "lying to your parents is a good thing" part of the story, they will probably have outgrown the content.
