‘I am Queen Amethyst, queen of the book fairies,’ the fairy announced, in a haughty voice. ‘You must be Connie.’

Connie stared at her in awe and immediately knew what Ruby meant about her being scary. Her face seemed older than Ruby’s and she had sharp cheekbones and a pointed chin. Her eyes were a violet colour and, as she inspected Connie from head to toe, her lips remained pressed together sternly. Connie tried to curtsy, but she was so nervous that she stumbled and nearly dropped her flowers.

Queen Amethyst was looking at the flowers in surprise and Connie immediately saw her mistake – the bluebells were as huge as trees compared with the fairy queen. She should have brought some tiny flowers instead, like buttercups or violets.

‘O-oh . . .’ Connie stammered. ‘I forgot they’d be . . . that you’d be . . .’ But as she spoke, Queen Amethyst rubbed her fingertips together and suddenly the bunch of bluebells was showered with golden dust.

‘How splendid,’ the fairy queen said, holding out her hand to take the bouquet that, to Connie’s amazement, had now magically shrunk in size. Queen Amethyst sniffed the flowers politely, then handed them to one of her fairy assistants (just like the real Queen was always doing when she got given flowers on the television).

Connie had been so busy staring at Queen Amethyst that she hadn’t noticed the other two fairies who had emerged from the beam of light behind her. There was one with a blue dress and shiny dark hair, who Connie took to be Sapphire, and one with wavy blonde hair and a green dress, who she guessed must be Emerald, the fairy who was jumpy around humans. Queen Amethyst handed her bouquet to Sapphire, then started to fly around the library inspecting all the books and running her finger along some of them to check for dust. Connie saw that Ruby had been right to do all that extra dusting earlier on.
