Excerpt
The False Fairy Trick-and-Trip
“One orange honey blossom!
“Two orange honey blossoms!
“Three orange honey blossoms!”
Rainbow Frost and Amber Quill counted all the way to twenty-five orange honey blossoms—because that’s how fairies count seconds on Primlox.
“Ready or not,” cried the fairy sisters, “here we come!”
Then the two fairies darted through the island’s forest. They peeked into squirrel holes and looked behind stumps and bushes. Amber Quill zipped across the forest path and bumped right into Falsk, a fairy who wasn’t playing.
“Seen any fairies hiding?” asked Amber Quill hopefully.
Falsk had on a forest-green sepal petal skirt and wore a tiny hat of purple jasmine. She tapped the side of her head with one finger as if she were thinking. “Why, yes!” she whispered, pointing with her other finger. “I saw one right behind that tree.”
Amber Quill tiptoed and jumped behind the trunk to surprise the fairy from her hiding place.
Ker-splat!
Amber Quill landed smack in the middle of a mud puddle. “Aaaah!” she squealed. “I’m all splattered in icky muck!”
Falsk bent over, laughing. She watched Amber Quill stand back up. Her flower outfit was ruined.
“You tricked me!” Amber Quill said angrily.
Rainbow Frost landed beside Amber Quill. “That’s because she’s a trickster fairy,” she said. “Never, ever trust Falsk. She wouldn’t know the truth if it flew up and introduced itself to her!”
Amber Quill brushed the mud off her bluebell skirt. “I should’ve known better,” she said with a whimper.
