Chaque titre de cette collection propose une adaptation d'un long métrage d'animation de la filiale Disney. Celui-ci est consacré à la Fée Clochette, qui transporte ses lecteurs dans la Vallée des Fées. Sis au coeur du pays imaginaire, cet endroit merveilleux, gouverné par la reine Clarion, abrite une multitude de créatures ailées qui mettent à profit leurs différents talents pour rythmer la succession des saisons. Or, rien ne va plus lorsque la pierre de Lune qui doit permettre au Grand Arbre, source de tous les pouvoirs des fées, de se régénérer est accidentellement détruite. Secondée par une luciole et son ami Terence, Clochette se met en quête d'une nouvelle pierre, qu'elle doit ramener à temps pour les festivités automnales. Des illustrations de synthèse animent le texte dense de cette première lecture de facture commerciale. [SDM].

Life is boring when you live in the real world, instead of starring in your own book series. Owen knows that better than anyone, what with the real world's homework and chores. But everything changes the day Owen sees the impossible happen -- his classmate Bethany climb out of a book in the library. It turns out Bethany's half-fictional and has been searching every book she can find for her missing father, a fictional character. Bethany can't let anyone else learn her secret, so Owen makes her a deal: All she has to do is take him into a book in Owen's favorite Kiel Gnomenfoot series, and he'll never say a word. Besides, visiting the book might help Bethany find her father. Or it might just destroy the Kiel Gnomenfoot series, reveal Bethany's secret to the entire world, and force Owen to live out Kiel Gnomenfoot's final (very final) adventure.
