The Fairy's Mistake by Gail Carson Levine

The Fairy's Mistake by Gail Carson Levine -- 96 pages

The Fairy Ethelinda is ready to cast spells. When Rosella is kind, she blesses her with jewels that pour out of her mouth when she speaks. When her identical twin sister Myrtle is rude, she curses her with insects and pests that pour out of her mouth.

But when she sits back proudly to watch her handiwork, things go awfully wrong as it appears that Rosella has been cursed and Myrtle has been blessed. Now she must find a way to fix it.

Gail Carson Levine re-imagines fairy tales for young girls in a charming and humorous way.
