this book series used to be my ish

These little books absolutely fly off the shelves. Jack Frost has once again taken magic items from the fairies. This time, he stole the jewels from Queen Tatiana's crown. The jewel fairies can't do their job without those jewels. The jewels are hidden in the human world, and there are goblins guarding them. Thankfully, Rachel and Kirsty are good friends with the fairies and will help them get back their jewels. In this novel, they help Sophie, the Sapphire fairy, get back her sapphire that grants wishes.
The length of this book is good for young readers just beginning chapter books. The text in it is a little larger than normal, and there are still some illustrations included. However, these novels are very formulaic. In the entire series, Jack Frost always hides valuable magic items from the fairies, and the same two human girls help the fairies find and get those items back. While the repetitive format is comforting to young readers, and makes them feel good about being able to read this form, it stops challenging them after a while. If a new villain, or human characters were introduced, it would really revitalize the series. Boys will not enjoy reading this at all, because the only male characters are bad guys. As it stands, this is an okay series for young girls just beginning chapter books. It is recommended for purchase, but only because there is not much material in this particular category.

My daughter loved the idea of a wishing jewel, but questioned why the girls didn’t just use the wishing powers to stop Jack Frost and put everything right.
It was nice to actually have a set up for the next book in this one, a tiny change from the tedious Rainbow Fairy formula.

Kids like it, but as an adult the stories in this series make me cringe. It's like watching a B series on TV - entertaining but the story feels a bit forced. My 3 year old is ok with it though...

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!

January 20, 2025Seven Jewels are stolen from the Queen's crown. Without them the Jewel Fairies magical powers are fading. The jewel fairies can't do their job. Fairyland is fading fast. Jack Frost is up to no good again. This time he has stolen seven jewel's from Queen Titana's crown. Magic is fairyland is fading fast.
These books were my life when I was in elementary school. My sister had a whole bunch of these books in her room, and she wanted to get rid of them but I wanted to read them first before I gave them away. These books were apart of my childhood of course I need to read them first. I always loved how short these books were, which makes them great for kids. I think every little kid went through a phase in their life where these books were their lives and they couldn't let them go until they grew out of them. I will be rereading these so prepare for some reviews on these little books. Happy Reading!!!!!!

The Jewel fairies are : India the Moonstone Fairy, Scarlett the Garnet Fairy, Emily the Emerald Fairy, Chloe the Topaz Fairy, Amy the Amethyst Fairy, Sophie the Sapphire Fairy and Lucy the Diamond Fairy.Their gems control different types of magic like good dreams, changing, appearing (and disappearing) etc.
We love looking at the maps at the beginnings of the books. A different location for this series as Kirsty goes to stay with Rachel this time. Miss 4 liked the adventure playground best.
Miss 4 and I like to explore different books and authors at the library, sometimes around particular topics or themes. We try to get different ones out every week or so; it's fun for both of us to have the variety and to look at a mix of new & favourite authors.

This book had some good moments. A bit of bumbling on the girls' part--shouldn't they come to expect the goblins lurking around town by this point? The showdown had some funny moments but could have been more eventful/memorable. As always, the illustrations add a lot. A fun continuation of the series.

If I wished for a dolphin and got a freaking dolphin shaped balloon and then some other kid wished for the rain to stop and then all the rain went away instead of him just getting like an umbrella I would sue. The stakes of the series really picked up at the end of this book.

This is the sixth book of seven in the Rainbow Magic Jewel Fairies series by the group of authors who go by the pseudonym Daisy Meadows. While the stories are basically the same and follow a simple formula, they are entertaining for young girls who are starting to read chapter books and I love that our oldest is just ripping through them. We both read the books separately and talk about what happens. I'm not a huge fan of them, but each story only takes about 5-10 minutes to read. Our oldest is starting to read them very quickly, too, and she ended up finishing four of these stories in one day.
Feb 2012 update: our youngest is now immersing herself in this series and is reading them very quickly, too. As inane as I thought they were, I love that this series is making readers of our girls. Hooray!

This book pleasantly surprised me with a couple unexpected deviations from the otherwise formulaic series.
In this book, as part of fairy / goblin confrontation, the goblins were transformed into other creatures! I admit, I wondered, "What will happen to them? Will they be stuck in the human world forever? That's sad!" Happily, this concern was actually addressed.
Also, for the first time that I've encountered, this book had a twist. The girls got the jewel, the goblins were defeated, but the book wasn't over yet! It wasn't a huge dramatic turn or anything, but it was still a nice change of pace.

Another in the series of books where Rachel and Kirsty try to help the fairies recover their gemstones. In this one they are searching for a sapphire that has the ability to grant wishes. There are a couple funny scenes involving the weather and a water fountain, although the usual goblin problem crops up also.
Although they have a wish-granting sapphire, it doesn't occur to the girls or the fairy to wish for Fairyland to be protected against Jack Frost and his minions; nor do they wish for all the goblins to be blocked from the world of humans, which is where the missing jewels are. Because of that, I think this is one of the weakest of the series.

The Jewel Fairies
Sophie the Sapphire Fairy can't make wishes come true without her magic jewel. Can a local fountain provide a starting point for Rachel and Kirsty and lead them to the hidden jewel?
As with the other Rainbow magic book that i have reviwed i recommend these books to all little girls that are facinated with Fairies.

After the three friends find the sapphire Sophie starts to fade. That is because the magical diamond is missing. It is a wild start to get the magic sapphire because Rachel goes into the fountain and she falls down while she is trying to get the sapphire. All the goblins are at the edge of the fountain holding squirting guns and spraying all the water at the girls.

I really liked this book because at the end, Sophie can't fly because the book after it is Lucy the Diamond Fairy and the diamond controls flying power. It's still missing so none of the fairies can fly.
Rachel and Kristy have to put fairy dust on Sophie so she can go back to Fairy Land because the jewels are hidden in the human world.

Rachel and Kirsty saw two children and their parents granting their wishes at a mermaid fountain. There they met Sophie the Sapphire Fairy, and her sapphire makes their wishes come true. The goblins once again stole her sapphire and the girls needs to bring it back for Queen Titania's crown, and a cliffhanger at the end.
