Ruby the Red Fairy (Rainbow Magic Series #1)

fun

my 6 year old daughter loves these books! all her friends are addicted to the fairy books and pretend play faires all the time.

Excellent book for a broad age range

I bought this book hoping for a series both my daughters would enjoy. In terms of reading level, it was an excellent fit. It was a slight challenge for the youngest, but she enjoyed the story enough to complete it. It was a simple read for the eldest, but she compensated by reading through every other book of the Rainbow series that was available through our local library. We'll be coming into the store soon to buy the books the local library didn't have so that we know what happened to Kirsty & Rachel, and to see what the other fairy series are like. I'm also hoping a paper doll book of the various fairies will be produced someday since I and my daughters enjoyed the various fairies' styles.I do think this book missed a teachable moment, though. The crisis in the story is created by a moment of forgetfulness & neglect on the part of the rainbow fairies. Jack Frost's reaction is certainly too extreme, but I wish the author had taken the opportunity to teach the value of a sincere apology by having the fairies apologize to Jack Frost. Kids are well served, I think, when they see honest, authentic & sincere apologies given & forgiveness granted, and it's also worth teaching that there's rarely only one side of a disagreement at fault. It didn't need to be anything preachy or involved, just something along the lines of "We're so sorry we forgot your invitation. We never intended to make you feel left out. Please forgive us for our mistake."Just my 2 cents' worth!

My daughters throughly enjoy this series

This is a great series that has intrigued both my 2nd grader and my 4th grader who usually reads series like Harry Potter and Warriors.

Great!

My daughter loves these books! She started liking them at about 4 1/2 and still likes them a year later.

Young Girls Love This Series!

Given as a birthday gift for my 7 year-old granddaughter, but the almost 5 year-old wanted her own copy, too. (I gave her another book in the series just two weeks later when she turned 5, and that made her very happy and feel very grown up.)

a reviewer

It was a bit to slow at the begging but then it got much better it was great from then on.The action was my favoute bit of the story.

for girls AND boys

My 4 year old daughter and 5 year old son love the rainbow fairies books. We have done the seven rainbow fairies and have just started the weather fairies 'looking forward to the party fairies next.' Would be great if they were available in audio tapes for the car!

Blah

This book is boring, and has no life or character to it. All the characters are the same. The good people are nice. The bad people are mean. That's it. And the series repeats itslef in every book. My little sister loves these books, but they are just soo awful and bland.

We LOVE this series

My daughter is 6 and loves to read, she read all of the books in this series in 1 week and can't wait to get more! What a great beginning chapter book series!

Rainbow Magic.

This book is an adventure book. Two girls are trying to find a fairy called Ruby.The book is suitable for 8 year olds to 10 year olds.

A fantastic story

It is a fairy story and its very good book.I like the part when the girls rescued Ruby.

Wonderful story.

My granddaughter received 'Ruby' as a birthday gift and was so hoping for more (which were not yet available in the US). She loves the 'Rainbow Magic' series and has added 'Amber' to her collection. She is so looking forward to the next releases in the series.
