Review:
Princess Arebeena is preparing for her birthday party with her friend, Isabella, when Arebeena realizes that she doesn’t have her tiara. Her parents have hidden the tiara and directed her on a treasure hunt. The girls set out, first searching the castle and then the grounds. Fern the frog directs them to the wise barn owl, Saffi. Saffi introduces the girls to the crystal fairies. They give her a special gift, but they don’t have the tiara. They will have to face a dragon before they can complete the treasure hunt.
This is a story that shares positive aspects of friendship and courage. Little girls are likely to really enjoy the story and the soft, pleasant illustrations. There are longer text sections which I didn’t think really would work for the intended audience age, especially if the child tries to read by him/herself. Still it is a cute story and can be read by a parent to their child(ren).
