As our oldest finishes up her Fun Day Fairies series, she is getting excited to read the next series: Weather Fairies. She loved this short story - she read it out loud to us in just a few minutes and now she is very excited to read the individual fairy tales. This is a very good book for beginning readers who aren't quite ready for chapter books. We've read this one a couple of times and I love listening to our oldest read this to our youngest.

This is a level 2 reader, that is a little different than others. The subject isn't one that you find very often in books. A unicorn is having to move houses to live at the castle due to his parents new job at pulling the King and Queens carrage. The fairies help him to understand it will be okay and they will still be friends. This book would be a good one for a child having to move, or for a child that loves fairies and unicorns

A different book! This is a fairy book which stars a young unicorn who's parents win the honor of being the royal carriage bearers so he has to move to the palace. Scared, he runs away and the fairies have to find him. A good story in some ways but would prefer more focus on the actual dealing with the fear rather than a one page resolution. Good though and my daughter loved it. Inspires talking points.
