...the full-color artwork's cheery palette and use of textures and patterns, as well as the friendly, rounded animal forms and spindly fairies, hold great appeal. An aesthetically pleasing fairy-fix.-- "Kirkus Reviews"
Superfairies is a fun set of four stories, one for each season of the year. The four fairies--Star, Berry, Rose, and Silk--tend to the animals around Peaseblossom Woods, rescuing them from whatever trouble they get into. The enchanting stories are accompanied by whimsical illustrations of the fairies and their animal friends. Children ages five to eight will be thoroughly entertained and may not even notice that they are practicing their reading skills.-- "Foreward Reviews"
There are some recurring characters, and each short story has a definitive moral or message. The frequent, beautiful illustrations, full of vivid color and playful detail, nicely enhance the text and occasionally contain some of the prose. Jones' cute, inventive descriptions of their tools and environment paint a lively picture of the superfairies' world. Beginning readers who love all things Disney will find a similar style of story here.-- "Booklist"
