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!

Unsurprisingly the Showtime Fairies have lost their magic stars and need Rachel and Kirsty to help them get them back. This is probably one of the better ones of this Showtime Fairies series, we do have a moment of relative tension when one of the interchangeable Rachel and Kirsty girls gets trapped. It's still pretty bad though, but fine as a way to get young children interested in books.

No room for a Sophie, or a Sally or a Stephanie or a Sue or any other S names that go with singing - no they ran out of ideas and went with Amelia.
I call imposter Amelia can't sing it is an outrage to the literature world!
Well anyway another one read.

A simple and fun short read with good length chapters for a child to read one each night before bed.

Rachel and Kristy and Amelia saw weird people shoving people everywhere and they knew that they were goblins.
The three friends followed where the goblins went and they followed them to a stage and they started singing. When the friends heard the goblins singing they knew that the goblins had the magic clef because they were singing so nicly.
The friends saw a goblin judge and when the goblin music team came on he cheered so loudly that the other judges pushed him away.
Did they get the magic star back from the goblins? Well yes they did.
