The title sold me on this book — anything Fairy, I had to check it out! A delightful tale that’s fun, enchanting and whimsical with charming, vibrant and detailed illustrations and fonts., It’s quick and perfect for young fairy lovers, it would make a great story time addition.

The illustrations are just beautiful! Very bright and eye grabbing. My kids loved this one! We've read a couple other How to Catch books and they love them. My 7-year-old loved the pictures and couldn't wait to see what the children would do next to catch the fairy. My 4-year-old loved the unicorns and the fairy in general.

Overall, a cute springtime story about children setting various traps to catch the Garden Fairy.

Thanks, NetGalley and Sourcebooks for the ARC! We can't wait to add this to our home library!

This book was so beautiful. The artwork was very well done and definitely how I think a fairy garden would look. My son really enjoyed the colorful zebras! Very imaginative and what we've come to love from this series.

Many thanks to Sourcebooks for an e-arc to review.

I want to start this off by saying my granddaughter and I love this series and I am so happy to see more books being added to it.
This is such cute, bright and colorful book. The illustrations are absolutely adorable. The colors and brightness attract the small children and keep them engaged in what is going on in the story.
This story is about a group of kids who are always trying to catch something. In this particular book it is a fairy. But somehow the fairy is always a step ahead of the kids. Although they try as hard as they can to catch the fairy,

Super cute and lots of fun! My 7 year old son really liked this one. He loves the silly traps and noticed references to other books in this series in the pictures. Beautiful illustrations and fun to read for me too.

This is a story about kids setting up a fairy garden while a fairy hides and does activities in the back ground.

This one was tough to get into with the kids and understand what was going on this book. It unfortunately just didn't work for us. The rhyming made it a bit difficult to read as the flow seemed off.

The illustrations similar to other books in this series is bright and colorful.

Thank you to NetGalley and Sourcebooks for this advanced reader copy. My review is voluntarily my own.

As a third grade teacher, I have read many of the books in this series. I enjoy using them as featured seasonal reads on my main shelf. This one is on par with the others as having fun pictures, engaging text, and a cute story. While this isn’t my favorite I’ve read of this series, it’s still a nice story that I’m sure kids would enjoy.

This book is adorable! My kids are already big fans of the "How to Catch a..." series. This newest addition How to Catch a Garden Fairy will be a big hit. It features adorable creatures and magical facts! I can already picture my kids trying to setup fairy traps in our garden this summer!

In this new installment from the How to catch Series, the Garden fairy gets some visitors.
The children are trying to get ahold of the fairy. They try a few different traps. The story has a whimsical feeling and there are some colorful mythical creatures. This would be the perfect book for spring.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the E-Arc in exchange for an honest review.

Thanks to SOURCEBOOKS Kids, Sourcebooks Wonderland and NerGalley for the advanced readers copy.

A garden fairy has some visitors to her garden! She can't be touched by humans or she disappears. The kids try a bunch of different traps to catch the garden fairy, but she won't be caught!

The story is enjoyable and the illustrations were beautiful! All my kids enjoyed this one!

My kids and I love this series of books by this author. We own a couple and this one is so cute! I think we will be adding this to our children’s bookshelf for Easter this year.

We love the rhyming in this story however sometimes it does feel a little forced and the writing style is not my absolute favorite. Still very sweet and fun for the kids though! Sing songy books are our favorite!
