This is totally juvenile and I would rate it with two start BUT that my daughter, 8, loved it. Loved it enough to say, "Let me read the next chapter to YOU Mommy! PLEASE!" That scores points. Fairies. Gems. Flying. I mean, come on, don't you remember being eight?

A satisfactory conclusion to the Jewel Fairies adventures.
This book doesn't quite follow the formula of previous books in the series. As soon as the book opens, the girls are transported to Fairyland, where the last jewel, a diamond, is hidden. This time, instead of dealing with Jack Frost's goblins, the girls must deal with Jack Frost himself!
We are also introduced to a new character, Pegasus, which helps to keep things interesting.

I have so many fond memories for this book and series as a whole.
When I was little, I spent a lot of time at my Gran's house whilst my mum was at college. We used to walk the block and visit the local library frequently. It was a really small thing, closed down now, but I loved it with all my heart. Scouring the shelves for a new “Rainbow magic” book, I found this one and eagerly pulled it off the shelf. “Look Gran! Her name is Lucy too!” I checked it out and we walked back to her house for juice and biscuits.
The minute we got it, my auntie and cousins were there and I hadn’t seen them in a while, but I was so excited for my book. So, they all sat around the table and I sat on the kitchen bench behind them reading this book and eating my biscuits.
Half an hour later, I flicked the page over and realised I finished. In one sitting! I did it! The first time I’d ever finished a book in one sitting, I was ecstatic. I had the biggest smile of my face and hugged the book to my chest.
“Gran? Can we go back to the library please?”
This book really is a diamond and it’s always going to be very special to me
Love Lucy xx

These books were literally my childhood! I stand by my opinion that every girl (or boy!) should read these whilst they're growing up. Every childhood needs a bit of magic and adventure. I will definitely be passing on my Rainbow Magic books to my future children.

My daughter just loves these books - I am just curious to see what the author will do next, with the pet fairies!

A fun series as a child, however I grew out of them very quickly, and don't look back on them as my cup of tea as a child either, I was just excited to be able to read independently! Nevertheless, they are great for young kids, and my Mum read them with me to help me learn how to read.
