According to the author, fairies are delightful, magical spirits with likenesses and kinship to flowers, insects and other small creatures. Fairies are problem solvers, helpers, fixers and protectors of nature. According to my 9 year old daughter, Carly, they are also very exciting, fun and interesting to read about.
Carly was the lucky recipient of The Fairy Chronicles for her reading enjoyment. And enjoy them she did. Each of these delightful books is around 120 pages and she read them all in 3 days. The girls of The Fairy Chronicles go on dangerous adventures to protect nature and solve problems. Each fairy has a special magical power that help them help Mother Nature. Carly said as she read the books, she imagined herself “in fairy mode” and could just imagine herself in the story working along side the fairies.
Carly was not frightened by anything in the books and she thoroughly enjoyed them. The author is extremely descriptive in her writing and Carly was able to recall all the small details about things she had read. As I showed her the website and we looked through the Fairy Handbook section, I was amazed at how much she had retained from her reading. I could ask her about anything in the handbook and she could tell me all I wanted to know and more.
This series of books are quite reasonably priced and to date there are 8 of them available for young child to read. I think they would be quite suitable for young girls ages 7 - 12. The newest adventure Cinnabar and the Island of Shadows, continues the tradition of the previous 7 Fairy Chronicles, which tells stories about wonderful 9 year old girls who are secretly fairies themselves.
