My 6 year old daughter got started on the Rainbow Magic Fairy books about a year ago and has been obsessed every since. These books are perfect for readers that are ready for chapter books. If you are new to these books, you should also check out the Rainbow Faires and the Weather Faires - they are my daughter's favorites!

A sweet introduction to chapter books, Nov 29 2007
By Julie Neal - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Rainbow Magic Special Edition: Holly the Christmas Fairy (Paperback)
The book description says this book is for 9- to 12-year-olds, but the story and difficulty seem about right for a 7- or 8-year-old. A girl in 7th grade is way above it.
That said, for younger kids this story of good friends Rachel and Kirsty and their adventures in Fairyland is sweet and enjoyable. The `tweens help Holly the Christmas Fairy recover Santa's sleigh and reindeer, which have been stolen by the greedy Jack Frost and his goblin henchmen. The girls travel to the mall to confront the villain, who is impersonating Santa, and then to Jack's ice castle home. It all ends happily ever after, with a ride with Santa in his sleigh and presents all around.
Every page is illustrated with expressive line drawings.
This title, and the whole Rainbow Magic Fairy series, would make a nice introduction to chapter books for fairy-loving girls.

A Kid's Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Rainbow Magic Special Edition: Holly the Christmas Fairy (Paperback)
This, book is about a fairy named "Holly The Christmas Fairy" who pitches a hand when it comes to christmas concepts with Santa Claus like making sure Christmas is full of joy and happiness for all the kids & adults (but to me not Jack Frost and his evil green mischevious goblins) but when Jack Frost agrees that he never will do anything bad again to the fairies he doesn't really mean it. The next thing you know Santa Claus says that he can't have any presents this year for the crisis he caused in fairyland and the human world he says he'll give Jack Frost presents next year if he doesn't cause any trouble. But guess what Jack Frost gets mad and when Santa goes in side his workshop Jack Frost sneaks over to his sleigh and steals it and puts a spell on the reindeer to make them obey hm and when the fairies find out there was three special gifts on the sleigh the fairies get super worried. The fairies then call Rachel and Kirtsy for help it's a fantastic story.
