Follow the delightful and at times naughty fairy, Twink, and her friends as they progress 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 because twink and her friends seem to have so much fun. 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 from early readers to really confident readers, so anyone from 5-9 will enjoy the experience of a series such as this one. 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.

But even though the rest of the third years are very excited, Twink cannot find it in her heart to enjoy it. Twink's grandmother is very ill. She is in 'the Doldrums' which is an unshakeable sadness and nobody seems able to find the right 'shock of joy' that will bring her back to good health.
