Here at Lovereading4kids we tend to focus most of our attentions on one off titles rather than series. However, when we saw Glitterwings we felt the narrative was so accomplished, stylish and exciting that we shouldn’t ignore it. It’s a series that bridges a gap for the 7 to 9 year old readers who enjoy the experience of series rather than one-off books. However, the writing itself is more challenging than most series aimed at this age. However, at that age most girls still absolutely love all things pink, glittery and if it involves fairies then even better. Glitterwings Academy is just that. Readers will follow the delightful and at times naughty fairy, Twink, and her friends as they progress up through Glitterwings Academy, the boarding school of boarding schools for fairies. But beware parents, children who read Glitterwings will soon be asking to go off to boarding school for twink and her friends seem to have such fun. To see all the titles just click here.
Number 4 in the series. Twink has completely settled in to the wonderful, great, oak tree that is Glitterwings Academy. She has two great friends - Bimi and Sooze. Bimi is quiet, thoughtful and supportive, and Sooze is full of energy, a little thoughtless and great fun! It is Sooze who persuades Twink to take some Fairy Dust to perform a prank on other students.
