Fairy Godmothers Are For Wimps

Guest article by Laurel Veil

Summary:

Ever been invited to dinner only to find out, you’re the main course? That’s sort of what happened to Haley Elizabeth.

Twelve your old Haley is a lazy member of the Spring Hills Middle School student body, in the town of, you guessed it, Spring Hills. She is a so-so scholar unlike her science fair winning, cheerleading, flute playing sister, Hannah. She is also a procrastinator who stinks at the violin.

Life gets a little better for Haley when she becomes acquainted with Juniper Hagglesworth - language arts teacher by day, fairy godmother by night...or so Haley thinks.

Ms. Hagglesworth helps Haley get out of a few jams, but Haley will learn that Ms. Hagglesworth’s help comes at a very expensive price.

Can Haley get a grip on this magical mayhem before it’s too late? Or will her situation take a strange and surprising turn? Find out in this humorously enchanting new book, specifically geared towards young readers in elementary and middle school grades.

Quotes from Kirkus Review for Fairy Godmothers Are For Wimps:

"Veil, author of several young adult and children's stories has mastered the vocabulary and tone of a kid's lit..." -Kirkus Review

"Haley is a likable, sympathetic main character, and the supporting characters are also fleshed out. The pacing is exactly right; Veil takes time to set the scene and introduce characters before beginning the magical parts of the book."  -Kirkus Review

"...it's an attention grabber, particularly when the plot turns darker toward the end of the story."  -Kirkus Review

"A page-turning tale about an appealing, young narrator suddenly thrust into a magical world."  -Kirkus Review

The Leprechauns Tale

A magical journey, full of twists and surprises. Fasten your seat belts. The stakes have never been higher. Enjoyable for the entire family. A roller coaster ride leaving you wanting more. I look forward to reading more adventures of the twins Dougal and Derry.

~ Review by Brian Perry - Actor in "Murphy Brown", "Days of Our Lives" & "Just Shoot Me"

I must say, as soon as I landed on the home page of theosheachronicles.com, I was in a state of delight. Maybe it is because I am from an Irish background and anything Irish gives me an immediate boost of happiness. This is a series of books. Here is what the author behind the author has to say:

 "Seamus’ compelling new fantasy adventure series whisks readers off to a world where villains and heroes are unlike any creatures they’ll ever encounter on earth. Set to become a family classic, the first volume titled ‘The Leprechauns Tale’ focuses on everyone’s ultimate dream – to become a hero."
