Caarina the Cooking Fairy is another wonderful, charming story by Julia Dweck who has again captured the imagination of children while also conveying an important message. The words come to life and the illustrations by Gemini leap off the page to bring this lovely story to life.The Fairy Queen has selected Caarina to prepare a special feast for all the fairies. As Caarina is in the kitchen cooking all her efforts are being spoiled by a gremlin that is hiding out and sabotaging all her recipes. Caarina is not to be discouraged as she forges ahead and finally figures out the real problem. She devises a plan to stop the gremlin and her determination to cook this special dinner never waivers.This is a wonderful story about confidence and determination to overcome any obstacles to be successful. Children will learn that everyone makes mistakes and the important thing is to learn from your mistakes and never give up.I love sharing Julia's books with my Granddaughter! She loves the rhyming style of the story as well as the brilliant and colorful illustrations. This book is a great gift to share with your kids/grand-kids and you will enjoy it as much as they do!
