Fairy School Dropout

Fairy School Dropout by Meredith Badger stars Elly who comes from a famous fairy family but doesn't like being a fairy, in fact she hates it.  She doesn't like the tutu because it's itchy and doesn't like to fly because it's tiring.  The book follows her through school and her adventures with a human friend.

My daughter loved this book.  She wanted to read it all the time and loved how the story was written.  She loved the characters and thought they were very entertaining.  She liked the magical world and descriptions of the magical activities.  There are pictures and the font is purple.  She loved that Elly got better at being a fairy at the end.

Appropriateness:  This book is a great book for girls (my daughter thinks that boys would not like it) and would work as a read aloud or a read to self.  She recommends it for readers aged 5-10.  The lexile is 750 putting it at a mid fourth grade reading level.
