Phaeries are apparently more hip when they are spelt with a Ph and throw in an additional E apparently, I have heard it makes it more serious and somehow spooky, whatever, I can't see this being the case here when the Phaerie is named Phredde and it talks about stories to eat with a banana - anyway I digress this is the first in a series and it is what it says and it is not much more, an OK read, which I think is my introduction to the world Of Jackie French.

This was a pleasant trip back to my childhood! I remember reading these books years ago when I was in primary school and I had so much nostalgia reading this.

Great group of episodic stories for kids / YA. Good fun escapism that quietly works in important morals e.g. environmentalism, multiculturalism.
Perfect missed opportunity to work in and acknowledge Indigenous culture esp with ancient Australia and fauna stuff.

I absolutely love this book. It was my favourite series growing up and it's still my favourite nearly twenty years later.

So glad I found this series! I loved these as kid and was great to re-read! Onto number two :)
I love these books. They are really funny
The first of a great series.
The first few books are made up of a number of short stories. The later books are single stories. Read them all!
