Sneak a Peek: Bad Fairy Strikes Again by Elaine Kaye with Giveaway!
I had this one a few days ago but couldn't resist shouting it out again!

Fairy Strikes Again

Bad Fairy Adventure Book 2

Middle Grade Fantasy
Thistle
Greenbud thought the nickname Bad Fairy was behind her, but she can't
escape it. Someone is spreading a rumor about her that just isn't
true and can ruin all of her hard work in getting into Advanced
School. What fairy would do such a thing? As if that's not bad
enough, Thistle's dad goes missing. Not a single fairy in Tinselville
has seen him. He's vanished like pixie dust. Her mom is distraught,
and Thistle is worried. Where could he be? Thistle and the Flutters,
along with Dusty and Moss, are on both cases. Can they find out what
happened to her dad and solve the Bad Fairy rumor? Thistle hopes so!
As we watch the boys, the wind picks up, making the fern lay flat, exposing us. We gasp and make a dash for the closest tree. Behind it, we huddle together.
“Boogles! A branch just hit me,” Weedy says.
The sky turns black. Wind swirls dust and leaves, and spits pebbles at us. This is not good. We have to get going now or else our payback will get blown away.
“Let’s go!” I scream and lead the group from behind the tree, but the wind makes it hard for us to move forward.
Rose and Lilly grab hands as they run, screaming, toward the creek. Lacey stumbles over a fallen twig, landing flat and hitting her face hard on the ground. When she doesn’t move, I race to her as sand and pine needles prick my skin.
I help Lacey to her feet. Luckily, she only has a few cuts on her face. A tiny bit of blood streaks down her forehead. She looks at me. Fear is bright in her eyes. She needs help. We all need help. I peer toward the creek. The boys are still there, frantically trying to lift the bag full of stones.
Shouting a warning and waving my arms, I hurry to the creek, trying to get their attention. Finally, Dusty sees me. He looks as if he’s been caught with his hand in the pixie jar.
I point to the sky and wave them to come our way. Rain starts to fall. Dusty pulls Moss from the creek. Fat drops of water pelt my head and wings as I wait for the boys to reach me.
“It must be a twisty!” Dusty screams. “We better find shelter.”

Thistle
Greenbud is not a bad fairy. She simply doesn't like rules, and it's
just her luck that her homework is to create a new rule for the fairy
handbook. But first, she has more important things to do. Like figure
out how to get back at Dusty and Moss for playing tricks on
her.
Before
she can carry out her plan, though, disaster strikes and she finds
herself working alongside the very fairies she wanted revenge on. Can
they work together and trust each other, or will things go from bad
to worse?
