Booth, Anne The Christmas Fairy. PICTURE BOOK.
Illustrated by Rosalind Beardshaw.
Nosy Crow (Candlewick), 2017.
$16.
Clara wants very bad to be a Christmas Fairy at the stop of
a stately tree, but she knows she has to be quiet and still and dignified for
such a role. Clara, though, loves to
giggle and whirl and sing, so she is very sad when she realizes that she may
not be able to perform the task. Then
comes along Santa - he needs a very different kind of fairy to save the
Christmas show and he knows that Clara is just the one. Can Clara be a that kind of fairy?
With her crazy curly hair, Clara is adorable. I fell in love with her and with Beardshaw’s
illustrations in general. And the
message that quiet, still, and dignified is not the only way to be helpful and
important is a timely message.
