About this listen

In this hilarious new chapter book series, lovable newbie fairy Oona has big ideas, only her magic always seems to go a little wonky. But she won’t let that stop her!

Oona Bramblegoop is a Newbie fairy, and she’s determined to do big things, especially if they can impress her idol, the Tooth Fairy. There’s just one problem: Oona’s magic never goes quite how she planned.

Oona’s protection spells work great, but only if you don’t mind getting a wedgie from a pair of magical underwear. And don’t even mention the smell disaster that resulted from her first fire spell . . . yikes!

Good thing Oona is creative, and she never gives up, no matter how surprising her magic gets.

Packed with Fun Fairy Facts, humor, and lots of heart, this magical series celebrates finding friendship and your place in the world, even if you fit in a little sideways.

Critic Reviews

Praise for Newbie Fairy:

“Though there’s plenty of wacky humor, the book also folds in sound messages about persistence, teamwork, and constructive responses to criticism. And a fairy who socializes with gastropods and conjures up undergarments makes for a delightfully unlikely hero—the potential for future Bramblegoop adventures is high.” Kirkus Reviews

“The sweet series opener is packed with goofy humor, whimsical footnotes, and amusing illustrations sure to keep young readers enthralled… It’s a lighthearted affair, but it also sneaks in wisdom about perseverance and ingenuity alongside the silliness. A fresh fairy tale with lots of laughs.”Booklist

There is humor for all ages…with delightful, burgundy-tone cartoon drawings. This is a fun chapter book for budding readers. Sure to appeal to fans of the “Rainbow Magic Fairies ” series and “Unicorn Diaries.” School Library Journal

“[A] delightful and funny debut chapter book about a Newbie Fairy determined to do big things.” LA Parent

Praise for A Boy in the Fairy World:

“This second installment of Bramblegoopian misadventures is filled with delightfully off-kilter schemes, set in a world that blends the quirky with the cute. Flowery, slug-speckled illustrations and footnotes with facts about the fairy world enhance the upbeat narrative and leave Oona poised to play detective in what promises to be an equally humorous third outing. . . Fun, funky, and imaginative.” —Kirkus Reviews

“The magical silliness and light potty humor, along with the many underwear references, make the story enticing to all demographics. Altés’s illustrations feel childlike and add to the whimsy and play of the overall piece. This series sequel is a strong addition.” —School Library Journal

Praise for Fairies vs. Leprechauns:

“A whimsical delight. . . Each character feels fully, delightfully realized in this latest excursion to Blackberry Bog . . . [T]his story focuses on interspecies diplomacy, complex personal motivations, and ultimately a surprising recognition of Oona’s increasing competency and cooperative nature.” —Kirkus Reviews
