I loved it because my mum's name is Vanessa.

A simple and easy book to read, great juvenile fiction book. Does have a rather repetitive feel after some of the previous books in the Rainbow Magic books.

Daisy Meadows and her fairies are my childhood. I collected so many in my youth, knowing all the fairies and their importance, and sticking with the two special girls who go to be a part of the magic.
Years ago I had to give my beautiful collection away, now still part of my childhood school where little girls are picking their favourite fairies and playing pretend. It's fun to hear stories from my old teachers telling me how over the years so many students have grabbed these books and fallen in love with the tales of two girls, Jack Frost and the fabulous glittering magic that is the fairies.
On Christmas last year, my sister surprised me with a boxset of these books, but cause you cannot collect these darlings as easily anymore. I was over the moon!
If anyone has a little one who needs a little magic in their life, wants to read and needs a big creation to be hooked on...it is Daisy Meadows!

In dance class the goblins were pretending to be boys in dance class, and then they were practicing on the beach and Rachel, Kirsty and Vanessa found the magic cleft.

Re-reading children's books I adored a decade ago, I decided to go for a bit of Rainbow Magic book. For some reason, though, I didn't get a nostalgic or deja vu feeling with this one.
That's strange, seeing how I loved these books when I was younger. I read every one possible, always asking for them for my birthday or Christmas. I liked Kirsty and Rachel, loved meeting a new fairy, despised the goblins, wanted the fairy to get her special item back, practically cheered when the goblins or Jack Frost was/were defeated, and was happy for Kirsty, Rachel, and the fairy at the end, although a bit sad that I, Kirsty, and Rachel wouldn't get to interact with that fairy much longer. Even as a 10-year-old, I noticed that the books were similar to each other, but I didn't mind--they were all fantastic!
Looking at Vanessa and the Choreography Fairy, I immediately loved Vanessa. The plot was very quick (although too quick in some places--I felt some parts were skipped and unexplained) and always had something going on to keep the reader hooked. Something I never thought about when I was younger was the brilliant illustrations; they are simply cartoons made out of a few lines, but the illustrator captures emotions and does a swell job at posture. Even a decade later, the author had me rooting for Kirsty, Rachel, and their fairy friend.
So just because I didn't get nostalgia coming back to Vanessa and the Choreography Fairy doesn't mean it's not a good book. There are now literally hundreds of Rainbow Magic books, so perhaps the reason this one didn't stand out to me today was because this book is different or my expectations were higher. That doesn't mean I won't love reading another Rainbow Magic book tomorrow, and it should not stop you or your daughter from reading the series! If she's like I was (and perhaps still am), she'll undoubtedly love Rainbow Magic and be unable to stop reading.

Short chapter book at 65 pages. Good as a read-aloud (I read it to my 5 y/o and she was entranced) or for an emerging reader to read themselves. Excellent vocabulary - teaches vocab through context. This book is part of the Rainbow Magic series - a prolific series of chapter books featuring two main girl characters and a host of fairies. Most books are approximately the length of this example, but a few stretch to about 160 pages. I was cautious about trying another children's series after my geronimo stilton experience (see my rant, er, review on that book if you wish, but long story short, they're awful); however, this series surprised and delighted me. There is a ton of awesome representation in this series, and the stories are sweet, fun, and filled with gentle lessons and enough oh-no-how-are-they-going-to-get-out-of-this-one?? to tickle young readers' imaginations.

Pour Vanessa

The girls are now helping Vanessa. Without her magic object everyone will be really clumsy when they dance.
Will they get the clef back before the goblins cause any more trouble?

I liked it when Vanessa, Rachel and Kirsty went to see the goblins dancing with the magic clef.
