5 out of 5 stars Gail's BRILL!!   October 27, 2007
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

The Fairy's Mistake's a gripping and intresting and fantasy, though a short read, it's detailed and describes a lot about Rosella and most of the characters. To me, Gail is a very gifted author and so far, all the books I've read from her are great. They're not too sophisticated so most 9 year olds like me can read and understand them but still perfect for adults.


4 out of 5 stars A Good Short Read   June 6, 1999
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I found this book much better than the Princess Test. I liked the way the plot was twisted so that the good character gets a punishment and the bad character gets a reward, and then everything works out. I didn't like the way Rosella never stood up for herself, she just let herself be bossed around, she didn't seem to have much of a briain until the end and then all of a sudden she starts standing up for herself, I didn't get how that transformation had occured. I still enjoyed the book and look forward to more books by Levine. Read this book if you have about an hour on your hands with nothing to do.


3 out of 5 stars It was just like the book,the talking eggs   April 6, 1999
It was just like the book the talking eggs. But I liked it. I liked the part when Myrtle plays the trick on the Prince Harold. I didn't like the way the people took advantage of rosella. she should have taken all her jewels back from prince Harold and given all the jewels to the poor people like she wanted instead of having the palace built. She should have taken charge of the situation! Inspite of how similar the story was to the talking eggs, I found it a fun, enjoyable read. Also, like in the book Ella Enchanted I felt empathy for the main character Rosella or Ella. With Ella you felt sorry for her how she always had to tell the truth, and with Rosella how people were using her for her jewels that came out of her mouth.
