As always, a fun filled magical adventure featuring Jack Frosts mischievous goblins. This time the girls are helping Alesha the acrobat fairy to find her charms.
My daughter and I adore these books.

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!

I find it difficult to believe in a storyline where enough high school students perform tightrope walking and trapeze acts that they have to have auditions. I'm not sure who came up with the concept, but it just seems a bit strange to try and convince children that this is a normal thing.
Other than that, it's the usual Rainbow Fairy storyline, but with a bit more jumping around.

Book 3 of the Showtime fairies and we are back to the alliteration titles after the great scandal of book 2 and that strange title which has several million people around the globe disturbed.
It's a good thing we can pull together and face the strange titles.
The book itself? Same old!

Without Alesha's magical star, Tippingtons acrobat show will be in ruins.

The naughty goblins stole her magic star, and so now the three friends have to find the goblins and get the star back from them. This is how they got the star back from the goblins well someone showered glitter on the goblins. Soon the goblin who was holding the star dropped the star.

Rachel and Kristy knew they had to find the star before the goblins did and guess what! They did find the star before the goblins. Then they found Alesha still looking for the star and then Rachel and Kristy gave the star back to her.

I love this book! And I think that this is the best show time fairies book I have ever heard in my life. This series is the best series I have ever heard in my life also.
