I'm almost 17 and I still love it! It's so beautiful. ( ) The artwork is beautiful, and Levine wrote a work of her heart, but the story itself is sub-standard (and certainly below her own standards) and the tie-ins to Peter Pan nebulous at best. Levine has imagined a world totally at odds with Barrie's invention, although it will unquestionably appeal to the generation raised on Disney's fairies. It does present messages of community, team-work, and encouragement suitable for elementary ages. (It was not published by Disney, but the illustrations, especially of Tinker Belle, are very close to the animated film.) Cute, not wonderful but not bad. A little too much of the cutesy language (though as I recognize it from Peter Pan, I'm willing to give the book a little more leeway than usual) - the descriptions of Never Land and the clapping, in particular. The way a laugh becomes a fairy was nice, though - a little more thorough than in Peter Pan. Prilla is nice, if a bit hapless; the hurricane is weird (there's no explanation for why it's so malevolent); the quest is interesting, though rather contrived. The illustrations are gorgeous - Tink, in particular, is familiar from the Disney version; this version isn't _quite_ that, but she's perfectly recognizable and rather more...realistic, if you can apply that word to a fairy. Rani's sacrifice and reward are great. Vidia needs a shot from a clue-bat. Quite a few of the fairies are fully characterized, though many are just sketches - left for later books, I suppose. It was fun, I may well reread it, but it's not one of those books that make a difference to me. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

HTML:Prilla, the newest fairy to arrive in Never Land, is so odd that Never Land itself isn??t certain whether to let her into Fairy Haven. Prilla shakes hands when she meets other fairies, and she says ??Pleased to meet you,? instead of ??Fly with you.? What??s more, she calls Tinker Bell Miss Bell. Altogether, she acts more like a Clumsy than a self-respecting Never fairy should. To make matters worse, Prilla doesn??t know what her talent is??or if she has a talent at all. Mother Dove, the wisest creature in Never Land, thinks Prilla has a talent, but even she isn??t certain. A diabolical hurricane, a selfish fairy, Captain Hook, snobby mermaids, a fierce golden hawk, and the evil dragon Kyto combine in a tantalizing elixir that tests Mother Dove??s wisdom, Tink??s courage, and Prilla??s mettle. Even Clumsy children on the mainland??even readers, wherever they may be??play a cru Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
