"This fantasy series is really one story divided into four pieces, written for hi-lo readers. It has an exciting element that will keep reluctant readers going. The numerous illustrations by Odessa Sawyer are magically intriguing. Soli and Lucy are best friends, but have a falling out. While in the Faerie woods, Soli wishes Lucy away, and she disappears. So ends the first book. Soli and Lucy discover that Soli is the daughter of the Queen, who is human, and the good Faierie King. These four stories will find a place in a middle or high school setting where very low level books are needed. There is excitement, adventure, magic, and a bit of romance. The series, written by Beth Bracken and Kay Fraser, is done well and will entertain those readers who might not otherwise be able to handle a lot of fantasy. Recommended."

"Beautiful full-color illustrations bring the scenes and characters of this ethereal story to life. The text is large, with only a few lines per page, making it easy for a younger reader to enjoy. The more mature themes of friendship and loyalty will appeal to more experienced readers as well. The unexpected twists and turns the story takes will leave every reader clamoring for the next in this charming "Faerieground" series."
