Loved sharing this book with my 6 year old daughter! I bought it as a gift for her and her Stepmom. It's nice to see a stepmom in the positive for a change. As a stepmom myself, this book touched my heart!!! Wishing that all stepmoms had the chance to be a positive and loving influence on their stepkids life. My daughter walked around the house "reading" the book, changing the characters names in the book to those of herself, stepmom, cat, Dad and special bear! I amsure he and her stepmom will enjoy reading the book together =)

My 6yr old bonus daughter and I love this...we need more children's books in this world that are positive and portray the step-parent/step-child experience as a wonderful opportunity to grow and learn from another loving human connection.

Did not discuss the role of step mother clearly to a 5 year old. The under lying story of the book was odd. Knock off of the fairy godmother in Cinderella. Not the type of step mother book our family was looking for.

Great storyline!! Really loved it!!
There aren't many books out there regarding blended families so it's nice to see this on the market, addressing current times and current families.

As a stepmother, my review of this is: meh. I am very fortunate to have a wonderful relationship with my 7-year-old stepdaughter, whom we have every other week. I was hoping for a book which would help her realize that she could have TWO wonderful maternal figures in her life, as she sometimes feels disloyal to her mother (with whom we have a good relationship) when she enjoys special time with me. However, this book is not it. In this book, the little girl seems to live primarily with her mother, and visits her father and stepmother on the weekends. The little girl is scared of the shadows on her wall, and the stepmother gives her a glowing stone that lights up the shadows. But when the little girl goes home, she has lost the stone. Her mother gives her a nightlight, but it is not as bright. She goes back to her father and stepmother's, and asks about the stone. Her stepmother takes her in the garden and reveals her magic wand and wings - she is a real fairy. She explains that the stone had the magic of belief in it, and the light came from inside the little girl herself. So as long as the little girl could see the light inside herself, she would not be afraid of the shadows. The lead-up to the end is ok, but then the ending seems very hurried and stilted. Overall, it ends up being more a book about losing fear of the dark than it is about the stepmother relationship. I think I'm going to donate it to my local library.

So many kid's books show only the traditional family so I love that this book introduces my daughter to the another type of family, and shows how a step mother can be a great addition to a child's life. None of the characters in the book are wicked and that is really important for modeling to kids how adults can coparent. For my daughter, it's just a sweet story that she can relate to, and she doesn't even notice that she's learning a lesson.

This book should be a standard addition to any stepfamily's collection. It features a positive portrayal of stepmom who helps her stepdaughter overcome her fear of the dark. The few negative reviewers out there seem to have expectations that this book will be some sort of practical story to teach about mom/stepmom relations or something. If you want something more didactic, there are other books that do that - the point of this book is to be a fairytale with a positive stepmom, since there are so many "evil" stepmother fairytales already out there.
