Mushroom Fairies are wise and have magical wands.
They may look the same, but each fairy has her own special magic.
The first fairy is the kindest and quietest of the three.
Her main task is to collect baby teeth.
She tiptoes softly around little sleepers.
She is known as the Tooth Fairy.
The second fairy enjoys parties, gifts, and mince pies.
From the treetop, she has the best view of the room.
She sparkles and glimmers like a star.
Meet the Christmas Fairy.
The third fairy is mischievous and likes to hide.
Can you see her?
There she is, behind the flower beds and hedges, with grass in her hair.
She is the Garden Fairy.
But soon, three fairies will become four…
One sunny morning, there is a knock at the door.
A New Fairy stands on the mushroom’s doorstep.
She comes from a distant land. The fairies make her feel welcome.
But unlike the other fairies, the New Fairy has no tasks.
The days are long, and she soon gets bored.
So, the kind Tooth Fairy takes her on a night mission to collect some baby teeth.
Much to the Tooth Fairy’s dismay, the New Fairy is not so quiet.
BANG, SMASH!
Next, the Christmas Fairy takes the New Fairy up her tree to enjoy the view.
But the branch is too high and unsteady, and the New Fairy is scared of heights.
Finally, the Garden Fairy tries to help the New Fairy.
They go to her favorite grassy hideaway in the woods
but the New Fairy is allergic to flowers.
ACHOO!
The New Fairy is sad and quiet.
The Christmas Fairy makes her a gift.
The Garden Fairy bakes her a poppyseed cake.
The Tooth Fairy brings her a hot cup of tea
but the New Fairy sobs into her teacup.
Then, one night, as the fairies go to bed, there is a knock on the door.
Tap. Tap. Tap. Who could it be?
The fairies line up behind the door.
When they open it, there is a burst of bright light!
The fairies close their eyes and open them slowly….
Standing before them is the most beautiful vision.
It’s the most famous fairy in the land –
the Fairy Godmother!
She smiles at them kindly and wafts inside.
They give her their best chair and a hot cup of tea.
They tell her about the New Fairy and ask for her advice.
The Fairy Godmother looks warmly at the New Fairy.
The New Fairy looks up shyly at her gentle face.
“What we need,” the Fairy Godmother says wisely
“is a new task that will not involve teeth, flowers, or trees.”
The fairies look at each other surprised.
For what could this ‘new task’ be?
“It’s an extremely important job!” says the Fairy Godmother.
She pins a badge on the New Fairy with a flourish.
The other fairies are excited to see what the badge says!
The fairies smile and look proudly at the New Fairy,
who beams as her gold badge shines back.
It says, ‘Fairy Godmother in training’.
