The Hairy Fairy: The Hairy Fairy Tales, Book 1

Written by Mark Watson

On Saturday morning Jack wakes up to discover a hairy fairy sitting on his head. Jack is incredulous. The fairy informs Jack that his boss is angry with him for messing with her cat, so she banished him to spend a day sitting on someone's head. He tells Jack that no one else can see him, but that doesn't mean they can't cause mischief and have some fun. Poor Jack is determined to carry out his previous plan to spend the day at the Scout Jamboree. When he goes to the market, the fairy causes the vegetables to grow. They soon take over the town and cause all manner of havoc. Now Jack and his nemesis are trapped. Will they be able to escape? What will happen to the town now involved with the military in a battle against the vegetables, likened to World War III.

This book of fewer than fifty pages might best be described as a beginning chapter book. The clever rhymes are filled with humor and challenging vocabulary. Illustrations are done in graphic novel style. Aimed at a six to twelve age audience, I think that advanced beginning readers and middle school students will love the quirky plot and offbeat humorous rhymes. Fans of fantasy, sci-fi, and humor probably will enjoy it.

A very funny children's book about a boys run-in with a Fairy most of us would like to avoid.
The illustrations are well done and capture the crazy adventures that are described through rhyming passages.
My young son enjoyed the book and was very imaginative about what he would tell that Fairy if he saw him!

The illustrations were cute but the story just rambled on to me and often it didn’t make sense!

This is a colorful, rhyming story with adventure, war, fairy - all sorts of things but, not really sure if it's appropriate for kids....not sure who it's written for. It's won an awful lot of awards but....just strange.

Fun children's book!

This is a hilarious story about a hairy fairy. He can't seem to do anything right! Lots of silly situations arise! There is a lot of high level vocabulary words for children to learn. I would recommend this book to children who'd like a good laugh!

Weird!

Supposed to be a children’s book but it is talking about the fairy being naked in front of people and forgetting his shorts. Ummmmm......weird much?!

Another great book by this author. Not your usual fairy depiction, but very interesting and well written. Also, the illustrations are the best.
