 Sparkle Street is a series of books about two very helpful best friends and their secret adventures in, you guessed it of course, Sparkle Street.
Every Monday morning Ellie, Emma and their moms meet at The Shiny Button Cafe. Whilst their moms chat and drink coffee, Ellie and Emma climb through the sparkly mirror into Sparkle Street for a new adventure.
In Bubble Trouble Emma and Ellie offer to help Fairy Pink tidy, dust and polish her fairy hotel until it is "spingly spangly sparkly" clean. Three more visitors pop in to help, one of them being Fairy Pink's granddaughter, Posy Pink.
Can Posy Pink stop her Grandma from making spells that keep going wrong and cause a bigger mess? Can they finish before the hotel inspector arrives?

 In The Daisy Disaster Rosa Bloom has more orders than she has flowers. She is so flustered that Ellie and Emma find her watering her hat instead of the flowers. Busy bee moms will identify with this type of scenario.
The two best friends offer to help Rosa Bloom sort the flowers and arrange the bunches to fulfill her orders.
The girls are challenged by frequent interruptions, messes and spills caused by a particularly clumsy client and an additional, unexpected order.
Can Emma and Ellie save the day once again in this "utterly flowery bowery" adventure?
Moms will love that Ellie and Emma are helpful and resourceful role models who encourage imagination and strong friendship bonds. Moms will also appreciate the touch of good natured humour too.
The illustrations are detailed, brightly coloured and sprinkled with sparkles. A perfect gift for little girly girls who will love collecting all the books.
