Mischief in the Mushroom Patch

      Lilly knelt down in the middle of the daisy patch and carefully placed the basket beside her. She ran her hand over the daisies as she wondered which one to pick. Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted the perfect one. Gently she snapped the stalk and laid the beautiful daisy carefully in her basket. Lost in her thoughts, she was not prepared for what happened next. It started with a very unusual sound, and it sounded as if it were headed directly toward her.

Ahhhhh, Ohhhhh, Awww.

Lilly stopped gathering daisies, jumped up, and stared into the treetops. Branches were snapping like twigs, and leaves were scattering everywhere.

“What on Earth is that?” she asked herself, puzzled. “I could have sworn in the midst of all the ruckus I heard a cry.”

Ahhhhh, Awwwww, Ohhhhhh.

There it was again, only this time the sound was clear. It was a scream. Someone or something was definitely in major distress. Lilly continued to follow the sound. It was without question getting closer. She glanced around and decided it was in her best interest to hide or, at the very least, get out of the way. Just as she jumped behind a large oak tree, she heard yet another cry; this one, unlike the others, was recognizable.

“Oh no, this is going to hurt."

The voice was closer than ever, and Lilly was scared. “Oh no!” she screamed. “It’s coming.”

She clung to the trunk of the large oak that she was hiding behind and waited for the inevitable, for the thing to land. She closed her eyes, hoping against hope that this thing wouldn’t actually land on her. One last piercing scream filled the air. Whatever this thing was, it hit the ground extremely hard.

A Fairy Match in the Mushroom Patch


Rosie, Ivy, and Pearle had gathered around the foot of Lilly’s bed; they were tickling her toes and whispering her name. Lilly finally sat up and glanced at Madame Louise, who was motioning toward her. Lilly knew it was time – time for their hug. Madame Louise grabbed all four little fairies, pulled them close, and gave them a little hug to start the day. She did it every morning to each and every one.

Lilly jumped out of bed and glanced at Pearle. “May I, Pearle,” she whined. “Please?”

Pearle nodded and tapped her lap. “Of course,” she giggled, “come on!”

Lilly jumped straight from the bed into little Pearle’s lap. “Could you please take me to the bathing room? I have misplaced my slippers and my toes are freezing,” Lilly said as she pointed to her tiny feet.

Pearle’s face lit up. There was nothing she loved more than giving the girls a ride on her lap. Pearle’s Chariot, the fairlings called it. Although Pearle used it daily, there was no slowing her down; she was incredibly fast in the chair that the elders had designed specifically for her. Often going too fast, especially around corners when playing her favorite game, make a fairling green! Spinning as fast as she could around and around on her back two wheels, trying to make the fairies sick. She could almost always make Boris sick and sometimes even Jack. Lilly often turned grey, though not quite green, and Ivy and Rosie, well, they were pros just like Pearle.

      “To the bathing room,” Pearle said playfully.

      “To the bathing room!” All the little fairies giggled as Madame Louise looked on.

Spider  Web Scramble


The mushroom patch, located deep in the forest, buzzed with excitement.  Mademoiselle  Francesca tried to gather the fairies that danced around her, but it wasn't easy. After all, they'd been preparing for one of their favorite games for weeks: spider web jumping. Mademoiselle placed a finger on her lips and shushed the fairlings.

"A word, please," she said softly. "That's right, dears, gather around." She pointed toward the ceiling. All the fairies looked up and laughed.

"Jack, please come down from the rafters. Now, if you don't mind. We're all waiting."

Normally she would have scowled at him, but the excitement that rippled through the hall had touched everyone, including the elders. No place for scolding today, not even for Jack. Jack circled twice and slowly lowered himself to the ground. Nudging Boris, he pointed up toward the rafters. Boris glanced up and noticed a bright red handkerchief wrapped around the highest one. Jack's face was beaming, knowing that Boris would have to retrieve it. Nice one, thought Boris. It would be far more difficult to retrieve the handkerchief than it had been for Jack to place it there in the first place. Jack flew perfectly, but no matter how hard Boris tried, he still struggled with flight and heights. But Boris accepted the challenge and gave Jack a thumbs-up to seal the deal. The sound of Mademoiselle’s voice reminded them to pay attention.

“I have a very special announcement,” Mademoiselle Francesca said as she walked among the fairies and gently touched the tops of their heads.

Stranger in the Mushroom Patch

Lilly stared at her feet as she walked down the hallway. Deep in thought, she had no idea she was about to run into her friends. Rosie’s sharp voice, asking Lilly what on earth she was doing, was a stern reminder to look where she was going. When asked if all was well, she threw up her tiny hands, shrugged her shoulders, and had no idea how to respond. When Lilly did reply, there was a noticeable amount of nervousness in her voice. Mademoiselle Francesca had sent for her during the dining hour, and that alone was very odd indeed.  
  
     “I’m not sure if all is well.”

     “I’m sure it’s nothing,” Pearle replied, trying to put Lilly’s mind at ease. “It’s not like you’re Boris or Jack.”

Read in sequence or jump around?

The Mischief series can be read in sequence or as stand-alone books because each story within the series is self-contained and focuses on a specific adventure or challenge faced by Lilly, Boris, and Jack. While there is an overarching storyline and character development throughout the series, each book can be enjoyed independently without prior knowledge of the previous books.

For readers who prefer to read books in order, starting from the first book and progressing through the series allows them to witness the growth and development of the characters as they face new challenges and learn valuable life lessons. Reading in sequence also provides a deeper understanding of the relationships between the characters and the overall story arc.

On the other hand, readers who choose to read the books as stand-alone stories can still fully enjoy and appreciate each individual adventure. The books are designed to introduce the characters and their unique personalities, allowing readers to quickly become familiar with Lilly, Boris, and Jack. The stories are self-contained and do not rely heavily on previous events, making them accessible to new readers.

Whether read in sequence or as stand-alone books, the Mischief series offers delightful adventures, lovable characters, and gentle life lessons. The charming stories are filled with laughter, lighthearted moments, and important values such as teamwork, kindness, and integrity.
