Book Reviews of Marigold and the Feather of Hope, The Journey Begins (The Fairy Chronicles, Book 1) (The Fairy Chronicles)

Book Review: Enjoyed it Very Much
Summary: 5 Stars

My kids and I liked this book very much. We have been reading the series a little out of order but it hasn't taken away from our enjoyment of it. This first book has a fun-filled storyline with plenty of colorful illustrations to add to the excitement. Almost as soon as the main character Marigold finds out she is a fairy, she has to go on a mission with her friends and her dog Peanut to face gremlins and get the Feather of Hope back. There are a lot of small details in this book that make it extra interesting in my opinion as far as a children's books. An small appearance by a gnome character adds color to the story, and we find out that gnomes themselves add colors to nature. Marigold's aunt likes Rollerblading. Dogs and cats can understand fairies when they speak in fairy form. Fairy wands come in many varieties. Fairies have special gifts that correspond to their individual fairy spirits. For example, the dragonfly fairy is very fast and Marigold can repel bugs. We like the little details that make this a fun book to read and read again. Well done.
