Bookroo's summary
Freddie dreams of having a pet, but when the fairy Bessie-Belle tries to grant his wish, her poor hearing and his mumbling lead to unexpected results. With magical chaos unfolding, can the Fairy Queen help them set things right? Discover a whimsical tale of miscommunication and friendship, where every wish comes with a twist.
From the publisher
Written by Julia Donaldson, the author of The Gruffalo, and illustrated by Karen George, Freddie and the Fairy is a delightfully witty, rhyming tale with a subtle message about hearing impairments.Freddie wants nothing more than a pet, so when the fairy Bessie-Belle offers to grant his wishes, he knows just what to ask for. But Bessie-Belle can’t hear very well and Freddie tends to mumble, which means the wishes aren’t turning out as planned! Whatever can they do? Luckily the Fairy Queen is on hand to help.
