Book Review: BONNIE BAILEY AND THE FAIRE OF WORLDS by Ellie Kirk

 Every once in awhile we come across a book that leaves the reader in awe. Sometimes it's because of a character. A setting. An exciting plot or adventure. A whole different world.

BONNIE BAILEY AND THE FAIRE OF WORLDS by Ellie Kirk is one such book. This fantasy story immerses readers into a whole new world where beasts live with humans and all have special powers. 

Here's my review for this new middle grade:

 

 

Meet Bonnie Bailey, bee charmer. She and her mom built Beeline Apiary. This once thriving business is in danger of closing. They are so far in debt, Bonnie’s mom is considering selling the bee business Bonnie adores. What can a thirteen-year-old do to save it?

            Welcome to the Faire of Worlds. By outward appearances it looks like a carnival. But once Bonnie steps through the entry arch, the world she knows disappears. In its place is a world of magical beings, people from countless universes, and a brewing battle for good and evil.

            Will the Faire where Bonnie is asked to help tend bees big enough to ride be her and mom’s salvation? Or will the dark forces of the Faire threaten the lives of those she loves?

            Kirk has created a unique and wondrous universe of magic that will ignite the imaginations of fantasy-loving readers. A story rich in setting and amazing details with creatures that will thrill lovers of Harry Potter and Percy Jackson. Or anyone who enjoys fantasy. This is a page-turning, action packed thrill ride with adventure on every page. Highly recommended.

 

BTW...Don't you just LOVE this cover!?
