The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )

The Verdict:

The 2nd book in the 36th mini series - THE BIRTHDAY PARTY FAIRIES - in Daisy Meadows’s (a pseudonym for Narinder Dhabi, Sue Bentley, Linda Chapman and Sue Mongredien) RAINBOW MAGIC illustrated series for readers aged 5+ has disability representation (Sara has a prosthetic leg and Gracie was born with one hand) and fun visuals (e.g. travelling through party poppers) while the girls show a lot of initiative in trying to thwart Jilly’s plans.

RAINBOW MAGIC - SARA THE PARTY GAMES FAIRY was released in the United Kingdom on 11th May 2023. Thanks to the Amazon Vine Programme for the review copy of this book.

The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )

The Verdict:

The 59th in Daisy Meadows’s (a pseudonym for Narinder Dhabi, Sue Bentley, Linda Chapman and Sue Mongredien) RAINBOW MAGIC illustrated series for readers aged 5+ introduces new diverse characters (Gracie is Black and was born with one hand while Khadijah is Muslim) and there’s a real sense of danger with Jack Frost being quite nasty and gaining an ally in the troll chief. If your young reader wants to try this series, this is a good place to start.

The Blurb On The Back:

Kat the Jungle Fairy looks after the beautiful, lush jungles in the fairy and human worlds. But when Jack Frost steals her magical objects, all jungles are in danger! Can Kirsty and Rachel help save the homes of all the tropical plants and animals?

The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )

The Verdict:

The 57th book in Daisy Meadows’s (the pseudonym for Narinder Dhabi, Sue Bentley, Linda Chapman and Sue Mongredien) RAINBOW MAGIC illustrated fantasy series for readers aged 5+ is a solid affair that emphasises the importance of jungle habitats. However the illustrations are a little basic as is the depiction of jungle life and its importance, although I did like how some of the goblins are given personalities rather than being a uniform blob.

RAINBOW MAGIC - KAT THE JUNGLE FAIRY was released in the United Kingdom on 4th August 2022. Thanks to the Amazon Vine Programme for the review copy of this book.

Jack Frost has kidnapped Frenchmen the Bulldog Fairy’s magical bulldog! Without her pup and his magical collar, Frenchie can’t help puppy owners to look after their dogs. Rachel and Kirsty must rescue Frenchie’s bulldog - and fast!


The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )

The Verdict:

The second in Daisy Meadows (collectively Narinder Dhabi, Sue Bentley, Linda Chapman and Sue Mongredien) series for readers aged 5+ is a cute and informative affair that’s pitched at young girls. The illustrations are fine, I liked the fact that Frenchie is a POC and there’s a good message here about patience and responsibility. The RAINBOW MAGIC SERIES is a bit of an industry behemoth and this book makes it easy to understand its success.

RAINBOW MAGIC: FRENCHIE THE BULLDOG FAIRY was released in the United Kingdom on 3rd March 2022. Thanks to the Amazon Vine Programme for the review copy of this book.
