Summary:

Caarina is all set to create a delicious feast for the Fairy Queen. However, a pesky gremlin attempts to foil Caarina’s plan. Can Caarina “beat” him? Who will be “whipped,” gremlin or fairy? Young readers will enjoy this clever fantasy adventure, sprinkled with word play and more than a dash of fabulous fairy fun for all!

My Thoughts:


The Fairy Queen chooses Caarina to cook a special feast. While Caarina is cooking, a wicked gremlin comes along and ruins every recipe she attempts to make. Will she give up or will she be able to get rid of this horrible creature?

My daughter loves fairies so, of course, she loved this book. I absolutely love Dweck's books! They always have a meaningful message in them written a fun and creative way that kids are bound to love. What I loved about Caarina (what a cute name) was that no matter how many times the gremlin ruined her cooking, she continued to try over and over again and didn't get discouraged or give up. She overcame every obstacle that was thrown in her path with confidence. This is another fun rhyming story with cute illustrations!
