About the Author:
Tiffany Mandrake lives in a cozy, creepy cottage in the grounds of Hag’s Abademy, where bad fairies go to study badness. Martin Chatterton is well-known as both a writer and an illustrator of titles for children. His works include Yuck! The Grossest Joke Book Ever and the popular Bad Dog books.
From Booklist:
Tasmanian author Sally Odgers launches her latest series with a new nom de plume. Flax Lilykicker, a fairy ill-suited to the Academy of Sweetness, allows herself to be recruited by some hags hoping to start a school for bad fairies. Admittance is guaranteed if she earns a Badge of Badness. With the help of a winged dog-face fairy, Flax abducts a young actress and her would-be kidnappers and extracts a ransom from the film-star’s mother. Unfortunately, these bad deeds turn to good, but Flax redeems herself by throwing a junk-food party that puts the good fairies temporarily out of commission. Mandrake’s fast-paced, tongue-in-cheek novel is the perfect antidote for the treacly fairy stories usually offered to this age group. Beginning chapter-book readers will appreciate the short sentences, large type, brief chapters, and frequent black-line illustrations, although some challenging vocabulary (“a skirling of bagpipes”) may deter some. Give this to fans of Emily Rodda’s Fairy Realm series, especially those who are ready for something more snarky. Grades 2-4. --Kay Weisman
