SuitabookLara the black cat fairy
Daisy Meadows
- Reading
- Read alongside the child if the goblin pursuit feels worrying, pausing to ask what the characters might try next. Afterwards, check how the book resolves Lucky’s situation and Jack Frost’s plans.
- Themes
- Helping and rescue: Rachel and Kirsty hurry to help Lara save Lucky after magical animals are stolen and Lucky is pursued. The situation foregrounds helping and rescue, but the book’s evaluative treatment of these values is not established.
- Fantasy and magical conflict: Fairies and magical animals are opposed by Jack Frost and goblins in a fantasy adventure. Magic and opposition are central features, but whether the story critiques, normalises or simply uses them as adventure devices is unclear.
- Worth knowing
- The main point to notice is that Lucky, Lara’s black cat, is being pursued by goblins.
