review 1: Katie and her mother visit her grandmother in Arizona. The trip begins weird as they discover that her grandmother loves the heat does NOT have air conditioning. Katie feels as if she is slowly baking. The redeeming factor in the trip is that her grandmother starts sharing stories about their fairy heritage.This book is cute and would be fun for a middle grade reader. For me, it fell flat and I had a hard time keeping my head in the story. The book does not lack imagination. Katies grandmother, Viola, is an excellent story teller. The stories come at intervals when Katie feels like she is bursting to hear the next installment.The book has fairies and a wicked Count.
review 2: 3.5 stars. This was a cute two-stories-in-one book -- part of the story is a ... moreyoung girl visiting her grandmother and the other part is the fairy tale story her grandmother relates to her. I think I liked the fairy tale story better. I did like how not everyone in the story has a "happily-ever-after" ending -- definitely some sadder endings for some of the characters which gave it a more realistic feel. less
