Great Book In An Excellent Series

We received Book #8 of this series last year as a gift for my then 5-year old daughter who was, and still is, obsessed with fairies. We have now read books 1 - 6 & began book 7 this evening (I read her a couple of chapters every night before she goes to bed.) The whole series is based on the adventures of a young girl, Jessie, whose grandmother is really the true Queen of a magical fairy world referred to as "The Realm". The Grandmother, Jessica, eloped with a human whom she fell in love with and went to live in the human world leaving her younger sister, Helena, to rule in her place. Jessie finds a magical door into the Realm and learns of her grandmother's true identity & then the fun begins. This extremely well-written series takes Jessie on many adventures where Jessie helps save various people in the Realm (and in Book #6, the Realm itself) by being brave and using "Good Human Common Sense." I often find myself reading ahead after my daughter falls asleep to see what will happen next! Always a good sign for a children's book to hold the attention of an adult. So many of the fairy books that are out there are very poorly written and unimaginative. We highly recommend this book as well as this series!

Nice Addition to this Series

I read nearly everything that my daughter reads (I just think it is good practice), and we both love this series. The stories are very enchanting and we like the variety. We are also both fans of the Pixie Tricks and Fairy Chronicles series. The three series are all different, and there is great variety in each. Fairy Realm: The Unicorn is a wonderful story and a lovely addition to Ms. Rodda's series. The plot is exciting and the story moves quickly. And of course, who wouldn't love a story with unicorns in it? This is also a book that can inspire a reader to read it again and search for similar books to enjoy. I am a big fan of anything that encourages my daughter to read. We are both looking forward to the next book in this series. My daughter has also informed me that when she gets a little older, she wants to read the Dragons of Deltora series by this author. I had never mentioned those books to my daughter; I am impressed that she looked up this author on her own to discover what other books she might have written. I recommend this book to all fairy, fairy tale, and unicorn lovers including grown up ones.
