Bad Fairy Strikes Again

By Elaine Kaye

Thistle Greenbud thought the nickname Bad Fairy was behind her, but she can't escape it. Someone is spreading a rumor about her that just isn't true and can ruin all of her hard work in getting into Advanced School. What fairy would do such a thing?

As if that's not bad enough, Thistle's dad goes missing. Not a single fairy in Tinselville has seen him. He's vanished like pixie dust. Her mom is distraught, and Thistle is worried. Where could he be?

Thistle and the Flutters, along with Dusty and Moss, are on both cases. Can they find out what happened to her dad and solve the Bad Fairy rumor? Thistle hopes so!

Book preview

Press

We are nearing the edge of our village limits when we see the abandoned house hidden in tall weeds. The night grows darker as we huddle in a fern thicket.

It sure is spooky out here, Lacey whispers and shifts closer to Moss.

Let’s move in closer, Dusty says. Moss and Lacey, you go to the other side of the house. Find a crack in the wall to see inside. Thistle and Rose follow me. He looks back at Moss. If you see anything strange, flick your flashlight on and off three times.

Then what? Rose asks while munching on another berry.

We’ll meet…um… Dusty looks around and then points. Over by that fern thicket. Is everyone clear? We nod and fly as low to the ground as we can. Once we reach our positions, we hunker down and wait.

Time goes by as slow as a worm while we wait. It gets darker. After a while, boredom creeps in.

What’s that? Rose points behind us.

Dusty and I turn to see a shadow coming out of the woods, heading straight for us. Boogles! No, wait. There are two shadows!

Praise for Elaine Kaye and BAD FAIRY

Bad Fairy is a true fairy adventure.

~Chrys Fey, author

~*~

My favorite part of the story is how the author has the Bad Fairy realize that people often misjudge, not only others but themselves. People and fairies alike tend to think better of themselves and less of others for doing the same or similar things, but if we are lucky we come to terms with our mistakes and begin to show others the compassion we, ourselves, would like to receive.

~Toi Thomas, author

~*~

Each character is an individual with his or her own personality. The author has done a nice job of making them seem almost real, perhaps like children you know.
