Rachel과 Kirsty 두 명의 여자 주인공이 우연히 만난 요정과 함께 마법같은 모험을 하는 마법 모험 판타지 이야기입니다.

두 주인공은 만나게 되는 요정들의 마법의 도움을 받아 현실에서는 할 수 없는 여러가지 능력을 가지게 됩니다.

요정과 힘을 합쳐 악당을 무찌르는 이야기 구조로 진행이 되며, 주인공 혼자서 하는 모험이 아닌 협동과 우정 등을 살펴볼 수 있는 시리즈입니다.

전개 방식이 비슷하여, 글밥은 많지만 시리즈를 계속해서 읽을 수록 익숙하고 편안하게 느끼게 됩니다. 

Daisy Meadows라는 작가가 쓴 것으로 나오지만 여러명의 작가들이 팀을 이루어 썼기 때문에, 다른 어떤 시리즈보다도 많은 100권이 넘는 책이 나왔습니다.

덕분에 아이가 이 시리즈를 좋아한다면 끊김없이 시리즈로 쭉 읽힐 수 있다는 장점도 있습니다. 

영국 Orchard 출판사에서 처음 나와 전 세계적으로 인기를 끈 책으로 1200만부 이상이 팔렸다고 합니다.

국내에서는 주니어 김영사에서 '레인보우 매직'이라는 제목으로 한글 번역본이 출시되었습니다. 

영국에서는 Orchard에서 출간되었고, 미국에서는 Scholastic 출판사에서 책을 만들었습니다.

이에 미국판과 영국판은 단어가 조금 다른 경우가 있습니다. 간혹 씨디 소리와 책 단어가 일치하지 않는 경우가 있는데, 출판된 나라가 각기 다른 것을 가지고 계신 것으로 보입니다.

책은 글의 양이 많지만 유사한 구조와 평이한 문장으로 이루어졌습니다. 

북레벨은 2~3점대입니다.

초급 챕터북을 어느 정도 소화하는 아이들에게 더 글이 많고 긴 글도 읽을 수 있다는 자신감을 주기에 좋은 시리즈입니다.

동일한 시리즈와 내용으로, 얼리리더도 함께 있습니다. 

이야기가 취향에는 맞지만 챕터북이 조금 어려운 경우에는 얼리리더를 활용하시면 좋습니다.
