Attention! Rainbow Magic Fairies...

[nickelbabysnatcher]

You'll never guess what the new Special in April is going to be?

Go on, see if you can guess!

And I think he's Cows in Action too.

Or is he another cunning syndicate?

He's a real author

yes, he's CIA and astrosaurs.

A lot of children's authors also do reading schemes books (not sure if he's done any)

Beast Quest, Rainbow Fairies etc are so formulaic I reckon they could be done with some clever use of the old search and replace facility.

Is the Animal Ark woman a real person, nickel? Someone I knew swore that they knew someone whose child had been at school with her child (I know, such fame ) but then someone else swore she was a co-op . . .

I like CIA and Astrosaurs

I like Cpt Underpants better though

yes, she is - that's Lucy Daniels, and she's creditted with some other books, too, in the Rainbow Magic.

I like Astrosaurs too.

My favourite is Jenny Dale. My daughter always found it remarkable that someone's name should serendipitously rhyme with "tale". Once spent 5 hours in a&e on a Saturday night with an armful of Jenny dales after a thumb related accident at kids world. Fond memories.
