Princess Smartpant's long lost Fairy God Mother Doris needs her help... In Fairy tale land, Fairy God Mothers are being made redundant, and replaced by Fairy Geek Mothers. All traditional Fairy God Mothers grant everyone three nice wishes. But the Fairy Geek Mothers have their own website where people can buy wishes online... what could possibly go wrong? Well, in Fairy Tale Land, it's the fairy tales which are suffering. For example, Princess Beatrice has bought a wish: to magic an ugly wart on her sister's nose, and her sister is annoyed, to say the least. Meanwhile, Goldilocks has a sore tummy because certain bears have wished for her porridge to go bad. If the fairy tales don't get fixed, children will never know the real ones! Can Princess Smartpants help Doris find a way to make fairy tales good again?

Reviews for Princess Smartypants and the Fairy Geek Mothers
Engaging, funny and informative.
Women in Science
Princess Smartypants is confident, brilliant and resourceful (and she definitely doesn't need a prince to help her rule over her kingdom of Totaloonia!). A great step up from early readers for 6-8 year olds, who will love the black and white illustrations peppered through the book.
The School Run
With a well-known princess, three fed-up bears and a parade of motorcycling grannies, this is a great take of fairy tales and a highly enjoyable read.
