Isadora Moon #7
Isadora Moon Goes to the Fair
Isadora Moon is special because she's different. Her mum is a fairy and her dad is a vampire and she's a bit of both. Isadora is excited for her first ever trip to the fun fair, but when she arrives it's not quite as magical as she expected. Luckily, her cousin Mirabelle has a plan to make the fairground rides extra special. What could possibly go wrong? With irresistible pink and black artwork throughout by author/illustrator Harriet Muncaster and a totally unique heroine with an out-of-this-world family, this is a beautiful, charming, and funny series of first chapter books. Perfect for fans of Claude, Dixie O'Day, and Squishy McFluff, Isadora Moon is the ideal choice for readers who want their magic and sparkle with a bit of bite!

Tjedan je dobre dječje knjige u Gradskoj knjižnici Rijeka. Meni ne treba poseban povod kako bih posegnula za nekom dječjom knjigom ili slikovnicom, a serijal o Isadori Moon baš mi se uvukao pod kožu

Ho scelto questo libro perché mi è piaciuta la copertina, l’ho acquistato dopo aver finito una lettura con la mia classe in libreria.
Isadora ha la mamma fata e il papà vampiro ,lei assomiglia un po’ ad entrambi.
Questo libro racconta di Isadora che riceve dagli amici un biglietto per le giostre ,ci va però le magie non si possono fare. Isadora non se lo ricorda allora visto che il parco non le piace fa una magia ,dando vita a tutti i peluche.
Questo libro mi è piaciuto perché è un romanzo per noi bambini e le avventure di Isadora Moon sono sempre spiritose,e ci sono illustrazioni “magiche”.

Isadora Kuu menee vanhempiensa ja serkkujensa kanssa ihmisten huvipuistoon. Mitä tapahtuukaan, kun keijut, vampyyrit ja noidat päättävät hiukan parannella laitteita? Ja korjausta ne tosiaan kaipaavatkin, vanha huvipuisto kun on ehtinyt hieman rapistumaan loistonsa päivistä.
Tässä maailmassa ei taida olla maagisella yhteisöllä sääntöä pysytellä huomaamattomana, sen verran tiheään tahtiin taikasauvat ja liemet viuhahtelevat tarinassa. Isadora Kuut on suunnattu perheen nuorimmille ja toisto on tärkeää kyseiselle ikäryhmälle, mutta näin lyhkäisessä kirjassa on tuskin tarpeen kommentoida kahdesti, kuinka Isadoran isä on vampyyri ja siksi nukkuu päivät.

This is a fun installment in the series. The Moon family goes to a human carnival that is run down and struggling. They use their magic to fix it up and draw a crowd, but things also get a little crazy. The monsters come to life. The carousel unicorns start actually flying, etc. Fun for carnival lovers!

It was the first chapter book that I have read together with C. It was good I just thought the story could have been a little bit more exciting, but we enjoyed it and we will definitely be reading more in the series.

Zeer geliefde serie van mijn oudste dochter. Prachtige tekeningen, eenvoudig en grappig verhaal met magie. Ik heb er ook van genoten.

Meet Isadora Moon, she’s a bit different to most children you know but that makes her very, very special indeed. Her mum is a fairy, her dad is a vampire and she is a bit of both. She attends a school full of ordinary children and loves doing the normal things that humans do but it can sometimes be a bit tricky when your family are not exactly normal. So when Isadora and her family embrace the human world things often end up getting a little ‘awkward’ but luckily it’s nothing that a bit of wand-waving can not fix.
Isadora had been looking forward to going to the Funfair Spectacular all week but when she and her family finally go it is anything but spectacular. The music is muted, the rides are rubbish, the fairy lights are failing and it is definitely lacking fun. There’s only one thing for it…magic. But magic in front of unsuspecting humans can lead to all manner of surprises…
I love a bit of magic and sparkle and Isadora Moon and her family have this in abundance. This is a fang-tastically fun read in which Isadora, her parents and her cousins, Mirabelle and Wilbur, visit the funfair. Unfortunately the Funfair Spectacular is far from spectacular and is definitely lacking in fun. There’s little to enjoy about the rubbish rides, the miserly music and the fairy lights are certainly lacking sparkle. But being part of family where your mum is a fairy, your dad is a vampire and your cousins are a witch and a wizard can have its benefits. And it isn’t long before potions are being dropped, wands are being waved, spells are being cast, and glitter, sparkles and fairy-dust are filling the air. And much to the delight of the funfair staff the fair is looking as good as it ever has and they have never so many people desperate to ride the rides, play the games and eat the food.
Fang-tastic illustrations in shades of pink and black feature throughout and there are fabulous character portraits at the front of the book so you get to know who is who. Added extras at the back of the book include a recipe for Vampire fairy-cakes and a quiz to determine which character you are most like.
Isadora Moon is a perfect read for children who are in need of a read that has more text than a picture book but who still want a read that has lots of illustrations. The inclusion of chapters definitely make it feel like a more grown-up read which I’m sure young children will delight in. Isadora Moon is a series of chapter books so if you enjoyed getting your teeth into this one then be sure to check out other titles in the series (they do not need to be read in order so choose one that takes your fancy).
Recommended for 6+.

Isadora Moon goes to the fair with her family. A magical, hilarious evening is about to happen!
I was so delighted to see a new Isadora Moon at one of my libraries! I just adore Isadora Moon and the adventures she has. And not only that, I also love that she is part fairy and part vampire. Part black, part pink. :P
In this one Isadora Moon wants to go to a fair. A human fair to be specific. Her parents are trying to sell her for vampire or fairy fairs (as I expected from them), but no, Isadora is clear. She wants to go to a human fair and see what the fuss is about, see something normal for once. I loved that she tried hard to convince her parents, and that she even promised to do chores just to go (even cleaning up her little sister's dirty diapers, which shows how badly she wants to go).
I loved that we see 2 of Isadora's relatives again, Wilbur and Mirabelle, and that they had the chance to come along to the fair (though they were, just like Isadora's parents, more for the more magical fairs).
I felt so sorry for Isadora, she was looking forward to the fair so much only to find it in disrepair and peeling paint. But at least she has her family. I had a laugh that all of her family wasn't so averse to help fixing the whole fair, while Isadora tried to keep everything as human as possible. It was so much fun to see the family bring some life into the fair again. With some magical additions, but quite often also just a new lick of paint and some glitter. I thought it was really sweet of them to do this. They really helped out and drew quite a crowd. Can I say that I still love that this world is apparently quite accepting of magical stuff happening? Quite often this kind of stuff has to be hidden, you have to be as human as possible, but it seems in this world it is all good to be in the open.
Of course, like all the other books, this one is delightfully illustrated in pink and black (and white). I just adored seeing the fair, especially after what Isadora and her family did with it.
All in all, a very adorable and sweet Isadora Moon book, and I can't wait for more!

In this book Isadora really wants to go to a human fair and so she asks her parents who eventually give in and being her cousins along too. Only as the fair turns out unexpected, they all magic up changes to enhance it until it gets a bit out of hand!
A super fun book again about Isadora and her crazy beautiful life as a fairy vampire! A perfect little book to keep kids entertained with gorgeous pink and black drawings too I really liked how they made the fair better, I wish we had her skills for our local park!

Me gustó mucho este libro, al principio Isadora paso de estar emocionada a decepcionada después de llegar y ver en que condiciones se encontraba el parque de diversiones, definitivamente no era lo que ella esperaba, sin embargo al final se da cuenta de que es lo verdaderamente especial y hermoso y que es mejor disfrutar de cada momento con tus seres queridos.
*Daba igual que el parque de atracciones en el que nos encontrábamos fuera humano o mágico, me sentía feliz de estar allí con mi familia y mis amigos, girando y dando vueltas bajo el cielo estrellado*.

Estuvo divertido, además añadí nueva información, no tenía idea de que Wilbur y Mirabella fueran hermanos, han cambiado el test que viene al final y ahora nos han regalado una receta para hacer magdalenas.
En esta ocasión Mirabella y Wilbur logran controlarse mejor, pero siempre algo se les escapa de las manos, perl van mejorando.

Un peu de féérie, de magie allié au quotidien d'une famille classique. Quand réalité et fiction se mêlent. Les illustrations sont agréables. Cela plait aux plus jeunes et quoi de mieux pour leur donner des ailes vers la lecture et l'imaginaire.

Isadora Moon is back with another fun tale with her bad cousin back, but sadly no mention of the ghost from #6 - will he return?
