Description
Cici has a lot to figure out. She's learning how to make friends. She's learning how to be a better big sister. Oh, and she's learning how to use her fairy powers! Things look easy for Kendra, a popular girl at Cici's school.
So when Cici finds Kendra's lost doll, she uses her magic to play a trick: Change the doll, and Kendra changes, too! It's only a joke - but the changes could last forever if Cici doesn't learn to see the best in people.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"Cici is adjusting to her parents' divorce and her newly acquired fairy magic. She spends her weekends at her dad's house with her younger sister, Sofia, who cries the entire time, and her days at school lonely after having a falling out with her best friend. Cici gets to know Kendra, the daughter of the man her mother is seeing. Resentful because she believes that Kendra's life is perfect, Cici plays a mean trick on the other girl, distorting the features on Kendra's beloved doll. This alters Kendra's appearance in a way that only Cici and other fairies can see, which leads the protagonist to believe that it isn't causing any lasting harm. When Cici's grandmother discovers the magical misdeeds, she uses the moment to teach the girl an important lesson about her magic. The themes of divorce, friendship, and the implications of magic will resonate with kids. Spanish language is peppered throughout the text.... VERDICT: Fans of Ashley Spires's 'Binky' books and Victoria Jamieson's new series 'Pets on the Loose!' will be ready to tackle this next. A wonderful addition to a must-have series." (School Library Journal)
"A fledgling Latina fairy learns she must use her magic responsibly. Quintessential preteen Cici is trying to make sense of a turbulent time in her life: Her dad has moved out, she's lost her best friend to the popular clique, and she's learning to control her nascent fairy powers. She has the 'fairy sight', which means she sees people with a sort of enhanced vision that helps her understand them (for example, she sees her harried mother as a multitasking octopus). One day at school she finds popular white classmate Kendra's beloved princess doll (fairy sight reveals Kendra to be something of a princess as well). Cici, seizing the opportunity to use her powers, chooses to wield them in an unkind way. When Abuela, also a fairy, finds out what she has done, Cici must own up to her wrongdoings. The plot - a friendship-tinged riff on the 'with great power comes great responsibility' theme - is instantly familiar, even with the fantasy elements.... Though this series outing doesn't explore its issues with much real depth, the pleasing style and familiar subject matter helped to compensate, leaving this with a very episodic, sitcom-like feel. A likable protagonist and fantasy elements make this well-trod ground feel fairly fresh." (Kirkus Reviews)
