    About this ebook

    Sisters Addie and Clara have just moved to a new house where they discover that their backyard is a gateway to an enchanted realm of magical butterflies. These special butterflies--called Wishing Wings--have the power to make wishes come true!

    A new butterfly named Tiger Streak has just emerged, but something isn't right. She's under a curse that has her confused--she thinks she's a bee because of her beautifully striped wings! Now, only Addie and Clara can help her break the spell. But they have to do it before the day is over or she'll lose her magic forever.

    Perfect for fans of Princess Ponies, this magical chapter book series is a wish come true!

      Another mystery for butterflies and children to come together and solve through quick thinking and teamwork! A new bloom named Tiger Streak emerges from her chrysalis while under an enchantment that causes her to believe she's a bee. Could the bees be behind the dark enchantment? The magical Wishing Wing butterflies once again call upon human sisters Addie and Claire to help find out. This book picks up right after the last one ended, but it contains a quick recap so that if you missed the first title, you'll soon be caught up to speed. The chapters remain short and simple, making this book a good bridge between early readers and much longer chapter books. Butterflies and magic make for a nice bit of escapism, which just a small amount of mystery to untangle but no real fear of danger. The occasional black-and-white illustration doesn't add too much but helps break up the text and might provide some visual cues for young readers if they come upon a harder word/sentence. They would be lovely if in full color but alas they are not so we must be content with the cover illustration and textual description of the butterflies' many colored splendors.

    Butterfly Wishes 2 - Jennifer Castle

    PROLOGUE

    An early morning breeze whistled through the woods, making the leaves of a huge willow tree shimmy and shake. Two butterflies sat perched on the edge of a deep hollow in the tree’s trunk, and the breeze made their colorful wings ripple.

    The butterflies barely noticed. They were busy staring into the hollow, where they saw three small gray shapes hanging down. Each one was a chrysalis, and inside were caterpillars waiting to emerge as something beautiful and new.

    One of the butterflies, Sky Dance, had pink and turquoise wings splattered with cloud patterns. She pointed one of her antennae to a fourth shape: the crumpled remains of a chrysalis that had already opened.

    Just yesterday, you were right in there, she whispered to the other butterfly, Shimmer Leaf.

    Whoa, muttered Shimmer Leaf, stretching her wings out flat. They were bright purple, peach, and mint green with leaf patterns. Wishing Wing chrysalides should be glowing and gold . . . but these just look wrong.

    We suspect there’s a dark enchantment on them, said Sky Dance. When you emerged, you didn’t know who you were, or even that you were a Wishing Wing!

    I was so scared . . . said Shimmer Leaf, shuddering at the memory.

    The worst part was that you didn’t know you had to earn your magic by granting a wish to a human child before sunset. You almost lost your magic forever, and all Wishing Wing magic would have been weakened! Sky Dance paused, staring sadly into the hollow. I’m worried that these chrysalides will have the same problem.

    Who would cast a dark enchantment like this? asked Shimmer Leaf. Who would want to make Wishing Wing magic disappear?

    We don’t know, but hopefully we’ll find out soon.

    Suddenly, one of the gray chrysalides began to move, wiggling and jiggling. It wasn’t because of the breeze.

    This chrysalis was getting ready to burst.

    I’m nervous, Shimmer Leaf said softly, touching one of her wings to one of Sky Dance’s wings.

    Me too, replied Sky Dance. But we have to be strong and brave. If our friend is under enchantment, she’ll need our help.

    And we’ll have to find it on the far side of the meadow, added Shimmer Leaf.

    The sisters exchanged a glance. They both knew what that meant.

    They turned back to the chrysalis just as it began to open . . .

    CHAPTER ONE

    Addie Gibson opened her eyes. A stream of golden morning sunlight peeked past her window curtains. She sat up in bed and looked around. For a moment, everything felt the same as it had the day before.

    Her room was still filled with unpacked boxes, since her family had just moved to a new house. The walls were bare with that half-gross, half-sweet smell of fresh turquoise paint. Her best friend, Violet, was still far away, back in the city where Addie used to live, and her new neighborhood, Brook Forest, was still surrounded by way too much nature.

    Then she remembered:

    Butterflies! Wishes!

    MAGIC!

    Yesterday had been the day Addie discovered it all.

    Deep in the woods behind her house, there was a secret grove filled with enchanted butterflies called Wishing Wings. They could talk, grant wishes, and work extraordinary magic. The Wishing Wings needed Addie and her younger sister, Clara, to help newly hatched butterflies earn their magic by making a wish come true for a human child. Someone, or something, had cast a dark enchantment on these "New
