Isadora Moon es especial porque es diferente. ¡Un nuevo libro de Isadora Moon, con actividades y acabados especiales! I just adored seeing the fair, especially after what Isadora and her family did with it.Mitad hada, mitad vampiro, ¡totalmente única! Of course, like all the other books, this one is delightfully illustrated in pink and black (and white). Can I say that I still love that this world is apparently quite accepting of magical stuff happening? Quite often this kind of stuff has to be hidden, you have to be as human as possible, but it seems in this world it is all good to be in the open. They really helped out and drew quite a crowd. I thought it was really sweet of them to do this. With some magical additions, but quite often also just a new lick of paint and some glitter. It was so much fun to see the family bring some life into the fair again. I had a laugh that all of her family wasn't so averse to help fixing the whole fair, while Isadora tried to keep everything as human as possible. ![]() I felt so sorry for Isadora, she was looking forward to the fair so much only to find it in disrepair and peeling paint. I loved that we see 2 of Isadora's relatives again, Wilbur and Mirabelle, and that they had the chance to come along to the fair (though they were, just like Isadora's parents, more for the more magical fairs). I loved that she tried hard to convince her parents, and that she even promised to do chores just to go (even cleaning up her little sister's dirty diapers, which shows how badly she wants to go). She wants to go to a human fair and see what the fuss is about, see something normal for once. Her parents are trying to sell her for vampire or fairy fairs (as I expected from them), but no, Isadora is clear. In this one Isadora Moon wants to go to a fair. ![]() And not only that, I also love that she is part fairy and part vampire. I was so delighted to see a new Isadora Moon at one of my libraries! I just adore Isadora Moon and the adventures she has. A magical, hilarious evening is about to happen! Isadora Moon goes to the fair with her family. Isadora Moon is a series of chapter books so if you enjoyed getting your teeth into this one then be sure to check out other titles in the series (they do not need to be read in order so choose one that takes your fancy). The inclusion of chapters definitely make it feel like a more grown-up read which I’m sure young children will delight in. Isadora Moon is a perfect read for children who are in need of a read that has more text than a picture book but who still want a read that has lots of illustrations. Added extras at the back of the book include a recipe for Vampire fairy-cakes and a quiz to determine which character you are most like. And much to the delight of the funfair staff the fair is looking as good as it ever has and they have never so many people desperate to ride the rides, play the games and eat the food.įang-tastic illustrations in shades of pink and black feature throughout and there are fabulous character portraits at the front of the book so you get to know who is who. And it isn’t long before potions are being dropped, wands are being waved, spells are being cast, and glitter, sparkles and fairy-dust are filling the air. But being part of family where your mum is a fairy, your dad is a vampire and your cousins are a witch and a wizard can have its benefits. There’s little to enjoy about the rubbish rides, the miserly music and the fairy lights are certainly lacking sparkle. ![]() Unfortunately the Funfair Spectacular is far from spectacular and is definitely lacking in fun. This is a fang-tastically fun read in which Isadora, her parents and her cousins, Mirabelle and Wilbur, visit the funfair. I love a bit of magic and sparkle and Isadora Moon and her family have this in abundance. But magic in front of unsuspecting humans can lead to all manner of surprises… The music is muted, the rides are rubbish, the fairy lights are failing and it is definitely lacking fun. Isadora had been looking forward to going to the Funfair Spectacular all week but when she and her family finally go it is anything but spectacular. So when Isadora and her family embrace the human world things often end up getting a little ‘awkward’ but luckily it’s nothing that a bit of wand-waving can not fix. She attends a school full of ordinary children and loves doing the normal things that humans do but it can sometimes be a bit tricky when your family are not exactly normal. Her mum is a fairy, her dad is a vampire and she is a bit of both. ![]() Meet Isadora Moon, she’s a bit different to most children you know but that makes her very, very special indeed.
