"Isn't it a beautiful day, Mom?" Kirsty Tate asked happily. She gazed out of the car window at the blue sky and sunshine. "Do you think it will stay like this for all of summer vacation?" Mrs. Tate laughed. "Well, let's hope so," she said. "But remember what the weather was like on Rainspell Island? It was always changing!" Kirsty smiled to herself. She and her parents had been to Rainspell Island for vacation during the last school break. Kirsty had made a new friend there, Rachel Walker, and the two girls now shared a very special secret. They were friends with the fairies! When evil Jack Frost had put a spell on the seven Rainbow Fairies and banished them from Fairyland, Rachel and Kirsty had helped the fairy sisters get back

“今天天气真好，不是吗，妈妈？”柯斯蒂·塔特高兴地问。 她凝视着车窗外的蓝天和阳光。 “你觉得整个暑假都会这样吗？”泰特太太笑了。 “好吧，希望如此，”她说。 “但还记得雨魔岛的天气吗？” 它总是在变化！”柯斯蒂暗自笑了。 上次学校放假时，她和父母去了雨魔岛度假。 科斯蒂在那里交了一个新朋友，雷切尔·沃克，两个女孩现在分享着一个非常特别的秘密。 他们是仙女们的朋友！当邪恶的杰克·弗罗斯特对七位彩虹仙女施咒并将她们驱逐出仙境时，瑞秋和科斯蒂帮助仙女姐妹们回来了

home. "Could Rachel come and stay with us for a little while, Mom? Please?" Kirsty asked, as they pulled up outside their house. The Tates lived in Wetherbury, a pretty village in the middle of the countryside. "That's a really good idea," Mrs. Tate agreed. "Now, let's take this stuff inside." "OK," said Kirsty, climbing out of the car. "Where's Dad?" Just then, a voice called out from the distance. "Hello, I'm up here!" Kirsty glanced up, shading her eyes against the sun. To the left of the house was an old wooden barn. Mr. Tate was standing at the top of a ladder next to the barn, holding a hammer. "I'm just repairing the barn roof," he explained. "It's been leaking."

首页。“妈妈，瑞秋能来和我们住一段时间吗？” 请?”当他们把车停在家门口时，科斯蒂问道。 泰特一家住在威瑟伯里，一个位于乡村中心的美丽村庄。 “这真是个好主意，”泰特太太表示赞同。 “现在，我们把这些东西拿进去吧。” “好吧，”科斯蒂说着，从车里爬了出来。 “爸爸在哪里?”就在这时，一个声音从远处传来。 “你好，我在上面！”柯斯蒂抬起头来，遮住眼睛挡住阳光。 房子的左边是一个古老的木制谷仓。 泰特先生站在谷仓旁边的梯子顶上，手里拿着一把锤子。 “我只是在修理谷仓的屋顶，”他解释说。 “它一直在泄漏。”

"Oh, dear," said Mrs. Tate, opening the car trunk. She handed two shopping bags to Kirsty. "We really have to do something about that barn. It's falling down." "I like it," Kirsty replied. Suddenly, she jumped. Something cold and wet had landed on her nose! "Oh, no!" she exclaimed. "I think it's raining." Then she stared at the white flakes that had landed on her pink shirt. "It's not rain," she gasped. "It's snow!" "Snow?" Mrs. Tate looked shocked. "In summer? It can't be!" But it was snowing. In a flash, the sky had turned gray and snowflakes were floating down. "Quick, Kirsty, let's get inside!" called Mrs. Tate, grabbing the rest of the shopping bags and closing the trunk of the car. Mr. Tate was already climbing down from the ladder. They all rushed inside as the snow swirled around them. "This is very strange," said Mr. Tate, frowning. "I wonder how long it will last?" Kirsty glanced out of the kitchen window. "Mom, Dad, the snow stopped already!" she cried.

“哦，天哪，”泰特太太打开汽车后备箱说。 她把两个购物袋递给了科斯蒂。 “我们真的得对那个谷仓做点什么了。 它在往下掉。”“我喜欢，”科斯蒂回答。 突然，她跳了起来。又冷又湿的东西落在了她的鼻子上！“噢，不！” “我想是下雨了。”然后她盯着落在她粉红色衬衫上的白色雪花。 “这不是雨，”她喘着气说。 “这是雪!”“雪?”泰特太太显得很震惊。 “在夏天?这不可能！”但是天正在下雪。 转眼间，天空变成了灰色，雪花飘了下来。 “快，科斯蒂，我们进去吧！”泰特太太喊道，抓起剩下的购物袋，关上了汽车的后备箱。 泰特先生已经从梯子上爬下来了。 雪在他们周围打转，他们都冲了进去。 “这太奇怪了，”泰特先生皱着眉头说。 “我想知道它会持续多久？”柯斯蒂朝厨房窗外望去。 “妈妈，爸爸，雪已经停了！”

Mr. and Mrs. Tate joined Kirsty at the window. The sun was shining and the sky was blue. A few puddles of water were all that remained of the sudden snowstorm. "Well!" said Mr. Tate. "How strange! It was almost like magic!" Kirsty's heart began to pound. Could there be magic in the air? But why? She and Rachel had found all of the Rainbow Fairies, and Jack Frost had promised not to harm them again. Everything was fine in Fairyland now, wasn't it? "You'd better go and change out of that wet shirt, Kirsty," said her mom.

泰特夫妇和柯斯蒂一起站在窗前。 阳光灿烂，天空湛蓝。 突然的暴风雪只剩下几滩水。 “唔！”泰特先生说。“多么奇怪!简直就像变魔术一样！”科斯蒂的心开始怦怦直跳。 空气中会有魔力吗？ 但是为什么呢?她和瑞秋找到了所有的彩虹仙女，杰克·弗罗斯特也答应不再伤害她们。 现在仙境里一切都好了，不是吗？ “你最好去把那件湿衬衫换掉，科斯蒂，”她妈妈说。

Kirsty turned away from the window. As she did, she spotted something on the kitchen table. It was a rusty old metal weather vane in the shape of a rooster. "What's that?" she asked. "I found it in the park this morning," her father said. "It will look great on top of the barn once I'm done fixing the roof." Kirsty reached a hand toward the weather vane. As she did, the metal glowed, and glittering sparkles danced toward her fingers. Kirsty blinked in surprise. When she looked again, the sparkles had vanished. All she could see was the rusty metal. Confused, Kirsty ran upstairs to change. Had she imagined the sparkles? Maybe. The snow was real, though. She was sure of that. "I'll call Rachel after lunch," she thought. "Maybe she's been noticing strange things, too." Kirsty hurried into her bedroom. There, on a shelf above her bed, was the snow globe the fairies had given her. It was a very special thank-you gift for helping the Rainbow Fairies. Rachel had one, too. It was filled with glittering fairy dust, in all the colors of the rainbow. When the snow globe was shaken up, the dust swirled and sparkled inside.

柯斯蒂从窗口转过身去。 就在这时，她发现厨房桌子上有什么东西。 那是一个生锈的旧金属风向标，形状像一只公鸡。 “那是什么？”她问。“我今天早上在公园里发现的，”她父亲说。 “等我把屋顶修好，它放在谷仓顶上就好看了。” 柯斯蒂把手伸向风向标。 当她这样做的时候，金属发光了，闪闪发光的火花向她的手指跳来跳去。 柯斯蒂惊讶地眨了眨眼。 当她再看的时候，闪光已经消失了。 她只能看到生锈的金属。 科斯蒂困惑地跑上楼去换衣服。 是她想象出来的闪光吗？ 也许吧。不过，雪是真的。 这一点她很有把握。“午饭后我给雷切尔打电话，”她想。 “也许她也注意到了一些奇怪的事情。” 科斯蒂匆匆走进她的卧室。 在她床上方的架子上，放着仙女们送给她的雪花玻璃球。 这是一份非常特别的感谢礼物，感谢你帮助彩虹仙子。 瑞秋也有一个。里面满是闪闪发光的仙尘，五彩缤纷。 当雪玻璃球被震动时，灰尘在里面旋转，闪闪发光。
