The Very Fairy Princess: A Spooky, Sparkly Halloween

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Christine Davenier. Self-identifying fairy princess Gerry is giddy about the school Halloween parade. A sheet over her dress produces--voilà--an angel costume. After ketchup ruins her friend's dentist costume, Gerry's quick thinking saves the day. The from-angel-to-tooth-fairy drama works, but it takes up relatively few pages; the story feels padded. Davenier's art captures the swirl of costumed children in high celebration.
