Das Buch ist wirklich total niedlich gestaltet und mit dem rosa und Glitzer ein wahrer Mädchen-Cover-Traum. Auch die Illustrationen im Buch waren wirklich süß, aber leider haben sich diese sehr oft wiederholt, was ich ein wenig schade fand. I really enjoyed that the book was a collection of short magical tales as it broke the book up and would be great for bedtime reading or an end of the day story. The stories were fun and simple to follow, which would be great for children who are just starting to get into reading small chapter books. Everybody loves a bit of magic, mermaids and of course, FAIRIES! Ella spends time with fairies and mermaids, helping save whales and solving robberies, all with the help of her fairy mother - although Mummy Fairy's spells do not always go to plan!

When fairy Aunty comes to school with Ella and tries to help her with her science project and defeat the unkind Zoe, fairy magic doesn't always go to plan... She can do amazing spells with her computawand to make delicious cupcakes, create the perfect birthday party and cause chaos at the supermarket. Mummy Fairy put on a woolly hat and flipped through the book. ‘Let me try something else,’ she said. ‘Here we are – a spell for strength. Strongeridoo!’
