1-3Fairy Realm series.
Illustrated by
Raoul Vitale.
In her grandmother's Fairy Realm, Jessie uses the Rainbow Wand to locate a missing child from our world who's wandered in--but nosy next-door neighbor Mrs. Tweedie catches them returning from the Realm and threatens to expose the secret. Compact pacing and neat correspondences between Realm and real-world plots suit newly independent readers, as do occasional realistic black-and-white drawings illustrating the action.
