How to Read the Rainbow Magic: Extras series

🟡 Mostly Standalone · Start Anywhere

Mostly standalone stories with recurring characters in a shared setting.

The Extras series consists of standalone special editions, each centered on its own fairy and theme (such as Christmas, summer vacation, Easter, or other holidays/events). Order does not strictly matter—each book is self-contained with its own complete adventure, fairy friend, and resolution, allowing readers to pick up any title independently without confusion or missing backstory. While the main Rainbow Magic arcs build sequentially, these extras function as delightful side stories that can be enjoyed in any sequence.

About the Rainbow Magic: Extras series

Series Premise

The Extras series features special, often seasonal or holiday-focused tales where best friends Rachel Walker and Kirsty Tate (or in some later stories, other girls like Gracie Adebayo and Khadijah Khan) encounter a single fairy or a small group facing a unique problem. These fairies—such as Christmas fairies, summer vacation fairies, star fairies, or those tied to specific events—have their magic stolen, hidden, or disrupted by the mischievous Jack Frost and his goblin servants. The girls help the fairy recover her special items or magic, restoring joy, celebration, or balance to the human or fairy world. The stories emphasize teamwork, kindness, and the wonder of the season or occasion, with the fairy granting a small reward or magical moment at the end.

Main Characters

Rachel Walker and Kirsty Tate are the recurring human heroines: two best friends who love fairies, adventure, and helping their magical friends. They are kind, brave, quick-thinking girls who spot fairy magic and jump in to assist. In later extras, other girls like Gracie Adebayo and Khadijah Khan take the lead in similar roles.



The featured fairy changes with each book—a special fairy like Holly the Christmas Fairy, Joy the Summer Vacation Fairy, Stella the Star Fairy, or others tied to the theme—who brings her unique magic and personality.
