Jessica the Jazz Fairy by Daisy Meadows


I read this with my 7-year-old daughter who loved it. Anyone who has read any of the rainbow fairy books before will know why. They are designed perfectly for her age group. Each story features best friends Kirsty and Rachel having to help a fairy friend from Fairyland in their perpetual battle with Jack Frost and the goblins. This one is no different.

This story is about one of the dance fairies, Jessica the jazz fairy, and, just like the other dance fairies, she can't find her missing magic dance ribbon. This means that until the ribbon can be found jazz dancing will be ruined. 

Naturally it is Jack Frost that stole the ribbon to use the magic to improve his and the goblins dance moves, but when the King and Queen of Fairyland demanded he return the ribbons he asked his goblins to hide them. It falls upon Kirsty and Rachel to help Jessica get her ribbon back.

Of course there are the multitude of clear and simple pictures along the way to bring the text alive too. 

As for my daughter she loved, in addition to the story, the opening poem and the hidden ribbon you have to find somewhere in the book.

Overall a typical rainbow fairy story.
