Fairy In Waiting by Sophie Kinsella

Fairy In Waiting (Fairy Mom and Me, #2)

by Sophie Kinsella

The favorite mother-daughter fairy team is back! Glittery wings, magic codes and multiplying ice cream cones combine in these next adventures from New York Times bestselling author Sophie Kinsella.

Ella Brook is used to being a fairy in waiting. It means that one day she will become a fairy with her own sparkly wings and Computawand, just like her mom.

But sometimes Ella doesn't want to have to wait any longer. After all, she helps her mom remember magic codes all the time! If only there were a spell for growing up faster.

Will Ella prove that she's ready to become a fairy? Or will she learn that she doesn't need real magic to save the day?


“A cotton-candy read for transitional readers.”—Kirkus

am a big fan of Sophie Kinsella they are quirky and funny so her talents lend well to a children series. I jumped at the chance to be on this blog tour and so glad that i did. This is a cute fun read that can be read fairly quickly in one sitting or dole out the 4 stories over a period of a few days.

It charming and funny and i think children in the age range 5-7 that the book is intended for will throughly enjoy. The fairy mom is not a very good fairy with spells and each story something hilarious happens when she try’s to fix a problem with her magic.

I think the unique way that the mom fairy switches from being human to a fairy is quite hilarious who can’t help but laugh when you think of an adult wiggling their but and saying marshmallow to change into a fairy. It done frequently enough in the book that you could read this to classroom and have the kids act out the part while listening to the story.

The length of each story is nice and short and their are some fun illustrations included in the story to keep us throughly entertained as we read along. I can’t wait to see what other things will happen to our fairy mom in the following books in this series.
