This book is meant for younger kids, but I still really enjoyed it. Hailey is so funny! I also want to read the next book in this series because Maybelle (a fairy) gets her magic back at the end of this book, but on the first spell she tries to do, she messes up! I can't wait to see what other funny things she does with her mix-up magic!

This book is obviously meant for young kids, but i wanted to read it anyway, since it is a book by Lauren Barnholdt. It a sweet book, written how a young child understands the world and things around them. It's the perfect read for younger kids, who will most likely find it really good and funny.

This one gets an extra star because of Mr. Edgar Frisk!

Very silly book. Read with my 8 year old. She disliked it greatly. She thought Hailey was the WORST! Bad choices bad choices and more bad choices. The only thing I didn't care for was the over use of repeated words. Whenever the author wanted to emphasize something they said it in threes. Stomp stomp stomping, etc.

Similar in feel to the Junie B Jones stories; but, Hailey isn't so lippy.
