Review
The prolific Daisy Meadows (Rainbow Magic series), has another sure-fire hit on her hands. This time the series is Magic Animal Friends. This series is set in the magical land of Friendship Forest. Here the animals talk and magic really does exist. Human friends Jess and Lily brave different adventures in each installment of this fun series. Sophie Flufftail is a brave little squirrel. The evil witch Grizelda enlists the help of the ice dragon to cast a spell on Sophie's family. Lily and Jess help Sophie save her squirrel family. This title is written with simple sentence structure, easy to read font and short chapters. Lovely pencil/pen illustrations a scattered throughout the book, perfectly complimenting the story. Perfect for fans of Daisy Meadows other series. Also, this would be great for kids who love animal stories, magic and for reluctant readers. With its simple and uncomplicated sentence structure and short chapters, this would also make for a good bridge between for readers ready to branch out from beginning readers, but not quite ready for more in-depth chapter books. This series will have a very brisk circulation in most libraries. A solid addition.
Overall Book Score: very good
