The Fairy's Mistake (Princess Tales)

Do you have gems falling out of your mouth? Well Rosella does in The Fairy's Mistake! But here is the catch, her sister has nasty beetles, bugs & snakes coming from her mouth. Here is a fiction story by Gail Carson Levine if you like reading about Fiction stories & princesses you would loovvveeee this book. While Rosella was out picking peas in the Village of Biddle her sister was at home singing and felt a funny feeling. Soon enough she had gems falling from her mouth. One day she was in her garden and Prince Harold asked her to marry him. They did and lived happy after. Unfortunately her sister Myrtle had started to get bugs falling out of her mouth and was mad at Rosella. Here are some books that are similar to this one. The Princess Test, Ella Enchanted, The Two Princesses of Banarre, The Wish, Princess Sonora & the Glass Hill, Fairy's Return, For Biddle Snake, Cinderella. I think the main idea is to teach the reader to not be greedy but be kind and thoughtful. One strong point is that the Princess Tale Series all connects. A weak point is that there should have been some action in the end. I recommend this book to my friends & family. It is a great book but also a great series. How would you feel if you had gems falling out of your mouth every second you tried to talk!!

I hope that you have great sucess with this book. I know I did.

Another in the fun and fanciful line of "The Princess Tales," this adaptation of the old tale "Diamonds and Toads" is more upbeat and cunning than the original but still stays true to much of the original story. "The Fairy's Mistake" shows us what happens when a fairy grants the kind sister with a 'good' gift (gemstones appear from her mouth) and the cruel sister with a 'bad' gift (frogs, spiders and other critters crawl out of her mouth) -- and the good intentions go awry. Quick read for all ages.

My third grader has read every book in this series, plus the few independent books this author has read. The stories are witty and poignant, and beg to be read over and over. Girls of any age would enjoy them.

I found The Fairy's Mistake to be a wonderful fairy tale. This book displays "girl power" and is great for girls-young women, although my whole family enjoyed this book. This book is a short, sweet, and great book!
