Cute and fun, but I'm not planning to read the rest of them to Ella - too many better books out there.

Review originally posted on Rather Be Reading
It’s been awhile since I read a kid’s chapter book, and what better than to tap into my love of all things Disney and fantastical? The Never Girls are three best friends with the addition of Mia’s little sister, Gabby, who are magically transported to the land of many talented fairies on an ordinary afternoon.
It’s sweet, cute, and a quick read and will certainly be enjoyable for the new reader or even to take along and read to the little fairies in your life. I was both delighted and surprised by some of the humor — humans are called Clumsies and the various fairy rules, talents (like a harvest talent?) and creative way of saying things by shunning some human language (they don’t use the words “cute” and “sorry”).
Don’t think this pixie dust-filled day is without some shake up. One of the girls (unknowingly) teams up with Vidia, the “fast flying” fairy who is kind of a trickster, and a little more adventure is added into the mix. While it’s sometimes a little hard to tell the girls apart (although one of them does wear glasses!), I’m hoping that will be cleared up as the series continues. (My gosh, Thorpe certainly got Tink’s pouty personality down though!)
In a Blink definitely made me smile, and I know I would have loved this series when I was a youngster! (Now I’m even more inclined to see the first Pixie Hollow movie! Did you know Mae Whitman from Parenthood is the voice of Tink?)

I read this book for the first time probably a decade ago, but last week me and my sisters (we're all teenagers mind you) decided to revisit it. I read like two chapters out loud every night and it was such a wholesome experience 10/10 recommend haha.

I enjoyed this little romp into Neverland. Written for little girls who want to see faeries and soon believe in flying... but is there evil afoot? I'll have to find out in the next book!

Genre: Fantasy
Grade Level: 2-4
I enjoyed this book. It takes you to Never Land and into the world of fairies. I kept wanting to read more and more. I would recommend this book to any young girl who enjoys fairies and the world of magic.

As an adult, I liked it. As a kid, I would have LOVED it. :) Cute, simple story.

A sweet beginning to a new sub-series of Disney Fairies. Four girls find themselves accidentally transported to Neverland and in the company of the fairies of Pixie Hollow, including Tinker Bell, who's less than happy to see them. Readers new to the world of Pixie Hollow will get a tour and lots of tidbits, and fans of the earlier series will be glad to see some of their favorites return (me: Prilla! I love Prilla!) This will be an easy booktalk for fairy fans.
