The Friendship Fairies Go to Camp

Lucy Kennedy Β· 2021
64/100
πŸ‘Ž Skip It

Kennedy's Friendship Fairies series has a warm following in Ireland and the environmental camp setting is appealing, but the critical record outside that market is almost nonexistent and the magical content β€” fairy sisters, magical forest people, a fantastical creature β€” is underdescribed enough that parents can't fully assess what they're picking up. A reasonable choice for Irish readers already in the series; harder to recommend cold to a new audience.

✦ Penny’s Take β€” this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below.
