Back Cover

Fall has arrived on Sheepskerry Island, which means it's time for the Fairy Bell sisters to start preparing their houses for the cold weather. But Golden is tired of working so hard--she needs some glamour in her life! So when she gets the opportunity to compete in Queen Titania's fancy-dress party on the mainland, she couldn't be happier. Independence, fashion, a chance to spread her wings . . . what more could a young fairy wish for?
