1-3Fairy Bell Sisters series.
Illustrated by
Catharine Collingridge.
After receiving word from their famous sister that she's coming home for Christmas, the Fairy Bell sisters promise to let Tinker Bell handle all the holiday preparations. But resisting the Christmas spirit is harder than they expect. Even though Tink's long-awaited appearance doesn't make much of a splash, McNamara's dialogue and pacing are spot on; Collingridge's whimsical sketches are the perfect complement.
