Fairy Tale Games



 Hi! It is me Shasta! What has everyone been doing? I have been having a fun time in Fey,
dancing with the nymphs and flying to the moon with the moon fairies. While I was gone, I had a brilliant idea. I decided that it would be fun to test your knowledge of Fey, so every week I will be asking you a question about Fairies. It will be fun to see how much you know.
Okay, it is time to start our first game. This game is called Name the Fairy. The rules are simple. I will give you a clue and you will have to name the fairy. 
Here we go!

Clue: I lurk beneath bridges and demand a payment for passage. The Three Billy Goats Gruff gave me a lot of trouble one day. What am I?

New Review!

It's Me! Shasta. I've just found
A Wonderful Review for 
Katie McCory and the Dagger of Truth!
 

Katie McCory loves reading about fairies. While she and her brother Billy are visiting their Grandma for Halloween Katie discovers a mysterious chest. Later she, her brother, and their friends are taken to the magical world of Fey, home to all sorts of fairies. The fairy queen tells them that an evil fairy has gotten a hold of a powerful weapon and is turning it evil. Katie, Billy, and their friends must work together to recover the dagger and save the fairies from evil.
I've always loved fantasy and this book is a masterpiece. The story is well written and the plot is paced out nicely. Some might say there are too many fairies in one book, but this is hardly the surface of the world of fairies. There are a few punctuation errors but it's nothing to worry about. If you wanted to find a land as magical as Oz or Narnia, you will find it in Fey. C.L. Collar's knowledge of fairies, combined with her excellent storytelling, engaging characters, Christian parallels, and wonderful imagination, is giving rise to a new generation of fairy tales.
Caution:
Some fairies and demons may be scary for young readers. Characters are in peril from evil fairies and dark magic.
Lessons:
We can overcome problems by putting aside our differences and working together. We can be kept safe from evil by listening to the Spirit and warnings from our parents. No matter who we are or what we've done, we can change and become better. The powers of darkness are no match against the things that are good. Good will always prevail over evil.
