Love the strong female characters that solve problems by working together. This book is our favorite so far. We like the unexpected helper and how Delphie takes what she learns in Enchantia and applies it to her real life.

Kniha pro děti od 6 let.

Pokračování příběhu Ely. Příběh dceru (6) tak bavil, že jsem některé pasáže musela číst i několikrát.

Yes the book was ok, I wouldn’t say the best but It was fine maybe some improvements? but this one was fine....

[Luna · Rating 3 out of 5]

In this addition of Magic Ballerina, Delphie encounters the Sleeping Beauty ballet, and we discover the Lilac Fairy is pretty crappy at her job of being a fairy. She can't create new spells, only alter gifts that have been given.

Man, what a crappy power.

But hey, Delphie saves the day, obviously. I have to wonder what would happen to Enchantia if they didn't have a young girl racing around to save everyone.

Love this one! Probably my top favorite in the series so far now. I loved the bit about the Rat King, and the new girl. And it had a tale of sleeping beauty!
