Book Review: Fairies and the Quest for Never Land

This review by Chloe, in Ms. Gray's class! If you have a book review to share, see Ms. Claire to write or videotape it.

Fairies and the Quest for Never Land Fairies and the Quest for Never Land by Gail Carson Levine


My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Chloe's review*:

When Gwendolyn, a descendant of Wendy Darling, gets escorted to Neverland by Peter Pan (a tradition) she is thrilled. She'll finally get to see real never fairies! However if she loves them so much, then why does Mother Dove say that Gwendolyn has to leave them alone?

I would recommend this book as a moderately easy read for 4th and 5th graders who like the Disney fairies stories and Peter Pan. I gave this book 3 1/2 stars because I thought it needed more descriptive language and a stronger plot.

*read as an ARC, may be changes in final published version. Now living in Ms. Gray's classroom!
