This week we have a book from the wonderful Gail Carson Levine--author of Ella Enchanted and Fairest, as well as many other fairytale re-imaginings and original stories--this one involving our favorite little fairy from Peter Pan: Tinker Bell! Tink has some new friends, and we meet the fairies of Neverland in Fairy Dust And The Quest For The Egg. We follow the story of the new arrival, Prilla, who is obviously a little different from the others. Every fairy, upon arrival in Neverland, immediately knows their talent, the activity they will specialize in. Prilla, however, is clueless as to what she's good at.But before she can get properly worried about this, a hurricane comes to Neverland; a hurricane that destroys Mother Dove's egg, the thing that keeps all creatures from getting old on the island. Prilla and her water-talent friend, Rani, and the less-than-friendly fast-flier Vidia, set out on a quest to heal the egg, and the island.
This charming novel is enhanced by some pretty amazing illustrations; just lovely! I hope you guys enjoy this book; it is followed by Fairy Haven And The Quest For The Wand. Happy reading!
