Review Detail

Leah loves to pretend to be a fairy, but doesn't know anybody else who likes it. All her other classmates turn away when she wants to play fairies so she's left all alone. Being alone makes her sad and all she wants is a friend. But when Leah looks a bit harder, she discovers there are others who like pretending to be fairies as much as she does.

THE ONLY LONELY FAIRY is a story about friendship that perfectly portrays a realistic version of a young girl with the drama and everything. The illustrations are soft and cutesy. In the back of the book, the author gives some advice on how parents can help their children make friends. It's easy to feel overwhelmed in a class full of students, so it's nice to show them they aren't alone in the endeavors to find friendship.


Final Verdict: I would recommend this to school age children who are nervous about making friends. This can show them that sometimes you have to look at everyone before finding that person instead of giving up. The overall message is uplifting and I like the author's note in the back too.
