Pearl the cloud fairy


Pearl: The Cloud Fairy (Rainbow Magic: The Weather Fairies, No. 3)


Hello friends! My name is Pearl. Want to know my exciting experience with my friends? If you want to know then follow me. This book is about how Kirsty, Rachel and me stop a naughty goblin from making everyone in Wetherbury gloomy. We always need to keep our eyes open for goblins. Jack Frost has blown them up twice their original size! The weather is all mixed up in Fairyland and the human world! I will tell you how we fixed the weather. We saw everyone was so gloomy in Wetherbury village. We were searching for the goblin when we saw that from the candy factor smoke was coming but the factory was always closed on Saturday's. We got to know it was the goblin. Who else would hide in a factory which is always closed on Saturday's. I shrunk both of them to my size so that they could fly up and get in through the window. We got in through the window and saw a goblin stuffing his mouth with cotton candy. He was waving the feather in the air without knowing what he was doing with it. I asked Rachel if she could distract the goblin so that Kirsty and I could get a chance to grab the feather. Rachel agreed to the idea. She flew to where the goblin was sitting and started troubling him. The goblin got so annoyed that he pushed Rachel into a cloud! When we found out that Rachel was caught in a cloud we were horrified but we found out that the clouds were cotton candy. Rachel was eating the cloud to break free.
Kirsty want to ask the goblin where the feather was and she could get a chance to grab her friend Rachel. She wanted to ask where the feather was but before she could do so the goblin saw that and stuffed the feather in his mouth. Kirsty started thinking of how she could get the feather out out of his mouth. Suddenly she saw a peppermint stick. She picked it up and started to tickle the goblin. The feather burst out of his mouth but before she could grab it the goblin grabbed it. I had an idea. I asked the goblin if he knew how to use the feather. He said yes I know how to use the feather. I will show you how to use it and he started concentrating and all the clouds in the room drifted towards him. When this was happening Kirsty freed Rachel and then she grabbed the feather from the dizzy goblin. I took the feather from Rachel and turned Rachel back to her normal size after that I bid them farewell and went back to Fairyland. Wasn't my adventure exciting? Would you like to be in it? I wish you would.

Hello! My name is Andrew. I am an inventor but my inventions always get me in trouble. I love to invent things like my uncle Al. My uncle Al is a top secret scientist. I love inventing stuff with uncle Al. I even have a thirteen year old cousin named Judy. She is annoyed with me because I got her into trouble by getting her snuffled into a dogs nose, pooped out of a Whale and had her pajamas chewed by a Tyrannosaurus Rex! Thudd is an invention of uncle Al. He has saved Judy and me many times. He is my best friend during my adventures. He has saved Judy and me from the exploding Sun, a giant Squid and a monster asteroid. Will he be able to save us from garbage? The Goa constrictor is my latest invention. Goa means garbage goes away. I invented this so that the environment stays clean from the garbage but the Goa constrictor shrinks the garbage then it cleans it it can even shrink us! This time we are  shrunk by the Goa constrictor! We are thrown in the garbage which is ruled by thousands of insects and worms like dung beetles, blowflies, centipedes, bombardier beetles and wolf spiders! I was almost gobbled up by an earthworm! Did you know that people even study garbage. Those people who study garbage are called Garbologists. Do you know how I ended up into the Goa constrictor's mouth? I will tell you how I ended up into the Goa constrictor's mouth. Germy Booger asked me to catch his excuse-o-matic but I missed and it knocked the remote to control the Goa constrictor and it fell into my invention's mouth! I had to get it out otherwise he would complain that I stole his invention!
When I was taking it out the Goa constrictor gave a hiss and then it gobbled both of us up because Judy was clutching my ankles and yelling! Did you know that Thudd stands for The Handy Ultra-Digital Detective. Judy is so angry that Andrew shrunk Judy again! Jeremy Bogart is my classmate he wants to win in the young inventors contest.

Crystal the snow fairy


Crystal The Snow Fairy (Rainbow Magic: The Weather Fairies, No. 1)



Hello friends my name is Kirsty. Want to know what was my adventure this time. If you want to know then  follow me into my adventure. This book is about how my friend Rachel, my fairy friend and Crystal I retrieve Crystal's feather back. You must be wondering what is this feather and why does Crystal have to retrieve her own feather? I will tell you why she has to retrieve her own feather. Jack frost is always busy in the winter's because he has to make it snow and helps in giving down frost. In the summer's he is free and feels very bored which means trouble for the fairies. Doodle is fairyland's Cock. Without Doodle the weather in the human world and Fairyland would not be possible. One day when it was very sunny Doodle perched on one of Fairyland's pink towers. Doodle flapped his wings, nodded his head and flew down to the ground. Suddenly seven goblins appeared behind Doodle! They quickly plucked all the seven feathers from Doodle's tail and ran away! Doodle chased them to the human world but without the seven feathers Doodle was lifeless and turned into a  rusty old weather vane. Luckily I found Doodle and thought it was a weather vane until the fairies told this to me. Jack Frost has asked the goblins to take one feather with them in the human world and hide it so that the fairies cannot find it. This is the second time the fairies need Rachel and my help.
Without the feathers the weathers are mixed up in the human world and in Fairyland. In this book it's snowing when it is summer! We find a goblin in Mrs. Fordham's house who lives there by herself. We know very well that a goblin doesn't like cold feet so we gave him warm slippers so that he could fall asleep while we could just snatch the feather out of his hand and run away. The goblin doesn't even know how to use the feather but still is waving it all around and that is causing ice cubes appear which fall onto the ground and melt which leaves tiny puddles all over the room! After Doodle gets a feather back ti its tail it tries to warn us by telling a part of a message which will warn us about Jack Frost. Don't you think Rachel and I are lucky to have met fairies. I wish you meet one too .
