Enter the Realm of Adventure Jessie's helped the magical people of the Realm to escape danger twice now -- she's a real hero to her friends there. But now her own world is in danger. Forest fires threaten her beloved home, Blue Moon. And only the magic of the realm can help her.
My daughter will be seven in 2 months, but I have to say this 31 year old loves Jessie too. If you want a books with action, fun, danger, and adventure for your daughter that won't put you to sleep these are it! The plot is tangled, yet Jessie and my daughter figure it out at about the same time. Last night my daughter sat up in the middle of the chapter and screamed, "Oh Oh OH the wish blah blah blah (I won't spoil the book for you)" These books inspire a love of fantasy without there ever really being a truly hateful evil person (the first book has a little evil). They focus a lot on suspense. I am not sure if it is the times we can't put the book down before find out what Jessie is going to do, or the extended bedtime that results; but she loves Fairy Realm! ...and Mama does too!
You will totaly LOVE this book!!!!!!!!!!!

My daughter's favorite series
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
My 6 (almost 7) year old adores the Fairy Realm books. And I have to say, after having waded through some pretty awful, perfunctorily churned out "series books" with her in the past, I've been pleasantly surprised by the quality of these books. Compared with so much of what's out there, Emily Rodda's writing is a cut above. The stories in this series are gentle and familiar fantasy material -- but it's engagingly told, and suspenseful without being *too* scary for younger readers. This book, "The Third Wish", I very much liked for the twist Rodda puts on a classic fairy tale/fantasy trope. It's nicely done, and my daughter had a blast untangling the threads of the story's resolution.

With every story Jessie adds to her charm bracelet a special gift from those whom she helps in the Fairy Realm and my five year old daughter and I can hardly wait to read what happens next! Emily Rodda's series of Fairy Realm books are a perfect gift to share. From the first book you become hooked on the charming characters from Granny Jessica the true Queen of the Failry Realm to the mischeivous elf Gif and Maybelle the talking miniature horse. What a delight of adventure as each tale unravels and Jessie finds that she is stronger than she thinks and so very much like Granny whom she loves and admires.In book three, you learn more about Jessie's Grandfather, who stole the heart of the fairy Princess Jessica, and his adventures in the Undersea of the Fairy Realm where he endeared himself to the merpeople and where Jessie must go to save Blue Moon where she, Granny, and mother live and the entrance in the Secret Garden to the Fairy Realm.Another enchanting page turner in this wholesome series geared to young girls who believe in all that is magical. Nice easy read that you will read with your child now and one they will read themselves when they are able. A another delight.
