This is a great book series, with many wonderful characters which are so likable and have great qualities to instill into the younger readers.

This story is about a fairy named Ivy who is very caring towards her friends, especially when they are worried... Ivy knows just what to say and do, using her magic to help them. However, Jack Frost is causing trouble again and Ivy is left without her powers and is very worried herself, but she has wonderful friends Rachel and Kirsty, who care about her and are there to help.

These stories are in a larger font so they are easy to read and are accompanied with illustrations to compliment the story throughout. They are suitable for confident young readers from around 6 plus or great to read with your child for bedtime stories. They teach lessons about being a good friend and helping others.

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!

Evelyn (age 7) says "I love this book because they did teamwork when they didn't really know if they could do it or not, so they did teamwork and they have girlpower xxx"

Alice (age 4) says "I love when she saves the whole entire world and everyone loves her the fairies, and Ivy the worry fairy is a worrier and I love that story even though it's a fairy I still love it and Jack Frost is a mean person in that book".

Even my six year old wasn’t very taken with this story. I’m not sure meditation and mindful gardening is very relevant to the target audience for these books. On top of that you have fairies hanging on to goblin’s hair, when goblins are always pictured as bald. It’s just a bit of a mess really, in no way will this help children cope with any worries they have.

3 stars = 5 stars for a kids book lol this was very cute and nostalgic I haven’t read something like this in probably 15+ years - even though the story was very basic it was comforting and felt like reading my inner child a bed time story (slay for stim toys and anxiety entering the rainbow magic verse i wish this one existed when i was 5 and reading the ogs

I liked the worry focus of the story, and that it takes place on a wellness retreat weekend. My favourite part was when Ivy did a spell that made the goblins unable to hear anything including Jack Frost as it was funny.

A cute kids book! I read this with my six year old.
