It’s pretty sad that I used to read these books in about five minutes and now it takes me around half an hour to read this 💔 2026 I will get better at reading 🤞

My granddaughter (aged five) borrowed this from the library, and asked me to read it to her. Since I had read the first 'music fairies' book to her a day or two earlier (also from the library) I agreed, although I had already realised that the extremely lengthy 'rainbow magic' series of books are all very similar.
This book concludes the story started in 'Poppy the Piano Fairy', with the inevitable recovery of the last instrument from the evil goblins. It was mildly interesting in places, and it's quite readable, but I found the storyline a bit trite, the characters very stereotyped, and the two girls with their 'secret' not only rather disturbing, but unnecessary.
Still, these books seem to encourage young children to read; my granddaughter will no doubt read several of them to herself when there are no adults left who are willing to read them aloud. But even she acknowledged that there was no reason at all to acquire the intervening five 'music fairies' 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!

I have now spent enough time in children's libraries to know that this series is an EMPIRE with a truly stunning hold on young girls across the globe. I just wanted to know what the deal was!
It turns out that I am not able to access the headspace required to enjoy these books (I also probably should have picked one earlier in the series, I had no idea what was going on). But now I know what the deal is. The books and the art are as cute as they look on the outside. And it's nice that young girls of color can see fairies and girls that look like them.
I am also relieved to learn thatDaisy Meadows is not one person, but rather four different women. The idea one ONE PERSON writing all those books (I practically have to catalog five new ones every month!) was kind of freaking me out.

Rachel and Kirsty are going to watch the National Talent Competition. Kristy's friend, Courtney and her band, Green Factory are auditioning in the contest, and even Jack Frost and the Goblins - and one of them is holding Sadie the Saxophone Fairy's magical saxophone! Will Rachel, Kirsty, and Sadie get the magical saxophone and play the perfect harmony once again?

As always, there were some great illustrations in this book. I particularly enjoyed Jack Frost's warning to the goblins and how quickly things fell apart for them anyway. It was nice to finally see the talent competition, although I would have enjoyed having Frosty's band on the stage for longer during their second appearance. A satisfying conclusion to the series.

6yo daughter would give it 5 stars because she likes the part where Jack Frost kept scowling, which she found funny.
Me? Formulaic torture as per usual. We'll split the difference between our star ratings.

This ended the adventures of the Magical Musical fairies. A good, short, fun read filled with magic, friendship and adventure.

This is the last book in a series of seven in the "Music Fairies" series by the group of authors who go by the name Daisy Meadows. It's a fun series, especially for young girls who are starting to read chapter books. Our oldest is addicted and I am encouraging it since I am confident that these books will help her develop a love for reading! She reads them on her own and will sometimes read aloud to me. I have been reading them along with her (at first I was irritated by them, but now they amuse me and they only take about 5 minutes to read). We will discuss the plots, her favorite parts and now that she's finished another set, which ones to read next. We've read through several of these series of books and our oldest is determined to read them all. I love it!

Rachel and Kristy go to the national talent competition. Jack Frost and his band are in it. One of the goblins is playing Sadie's magical saxophone. When Jack Frost is done performing, Rachel and Kristy pretend they're the makeup girls. When Jack Frost leaves to go practice, the goblin with the saxophone stays. Then Sadie makes magical cloth that makes the saxophone invisible. Kristy swaps it with the regular cloth. When the goblin polishes the saxophone with it, the saxophone turns invisible, so the goblin won't notice if Rachel and Kristy bring it back to Sadie the saxophone fairy.

I didn't like this too much because they found the Saxophone later than the show (but before the finals). They should have tried to find it before the show as it was the last show.
