Tales From Pixie Hollow Collection #3 Box Set
By Various

FOLLOW THE SECOND star on your right and fly straight on till morning and you’ll find a place you know from your dreams—Never Land. Past the pirate ships and Peter Pan’s secret hideaway is Pixie Hollow. For, you see, Pixie Hollow is the Never fairies’ kingdom, and each fairy who lives there has a special, extraordinary talent.


A list of the books in each set - and some info on 'order' Great books! We have been reading these to our kindergartener as bedtime chapter books. She's currently reading at a mid/late 1st grade level. I'm not sure whether she could read these on her own yet (I tend to think the length/complexity might be a bit daunting), but she's been loving having us read them to her. Because it has taken a LOT of searching for me to figure out exactly which books are in each set (at this point in time, they're not all listed here individually), I thought I'd try to save someone else the trouble: ETA: It appears (based on publication dates) that Fairy Dust and the Quest for the Egg 'starts' this series. It is NOT included in any of the box sets. I do know that references to this book are mentioned in at least some of the books in the box sets. Tales From Pixie Hollow 4 copy Box Set: The Trouble with Tink Vidia and the Fairy Crown Beck and the Great Berry Battle Lily's Pesky Plant Tales From Pixie Hollow 2: Rani and the Mermaid Lagoon Fira and the Full Moon A Masterpiece for Bess Prilla and the Butterfly Lie ETA: It also seems that Fairy Haven and the Quest for the Wand fits between box set #2 and box set #3, at least based on publication dates. I don't know if there are references to it in the later books, or how it truly 'fits' in the series yet - I'll try to remember to update when we've read that far!). It also is not included in any of the sets, but is seperate, just like _Fairy Dust and the Quest for the Egg_ that kicks things off. Tales From Pixie Hollow Collection #3 Box Set: Tink, North of Neverland Beck Beyond the Sea Dulcie's Taste of Magic Silvermist and the Ladybug Curse Tales From Pixie Hollow Collection #4, coming out August 25, 2009: Fawn and the Mysterious Trickster Iridessa, Lost at Sea Rosetta's Daring Day Queen Clarion's Secret Hope that saves someone some time and effort! (and with the 'edits to add' helps others figure out which order they 'should' go in!) Tales From Pixie Hollow Collection #3 Box Set My second grader whom loves anything fairy, loves these books!! These were the first chapter books she started reading and has not put them down since. Very nice collection I purchased all three boxed sets of Pixie Hollow books for my 6 and 4 year old. They are packaged nicely and the books themselves are perfect for reading before bed, a few chapters each night. Their small paperback size is good for easy reading for them as well. The stories are gentle and sweet with a few pictures interspersed throughout the book but not so many that it seems like a glorified picture book. These are definitely chapter books for younger children to read. They look forward to going to bed just so they can get back to them. I work at a library and checked out just one of the Pixie Hollow books and immediately ordered all three sets from Amazon. They are wonderful to own.
