moved a lever on the cart. In a flash, a large claw on the back of the snowmaker lifted the cube of ice. Clank reeled the ice in, and a sharp grater on the machine began shaving off thin chips from the block. Soon, snowflakes began pouring out of a tube at the top.
    â€œWow!” Sled whispered, amazed.
    Periwinkle beamed with pride. “You did it,” she said to her sister. “You actually did it!”
    Cautiously, Periwinkle flew over the border and into the column of snow. She looked unsteady for a moment. But then the cold flakes from the snowmaker swirled around her, making her feel right at home.
    â€œWow,” she gasped. It was as cold as winter, even though she was on the other side of the border.
    Clank adjusted a few levers on the snowmaker. “All righty,” he said excitedly. “Your tour begins with the Autumn Forest. Then it’s a quick stop in Springtime Square. And finally, the Pixie Dust Tree! Which, as you know, makes all fairy life possible.”
    â€œAye, that’s where you’ll be meeting Her Majestyness, the queen,” Bobble added.
    â€œThe queen?” Periwinkle asked in surprise.
    Gliss’s eyes widened. She nudged her friends. “They’re going to see the queen!”
    Tinker Bell hadn’t told Periwinkle about this part of the plan. The frost fairy glanced nervously at Tink.
    â€œShe’s very wise,” Tink assured her. “And if we tell her we’re sisters, she’ll change Lord Milori’s rule.”
    â€œThat is so exciting!” Gliss blurted out. “Say hi for me, or do a curtsy, or whatever it is you do!”
    â€œSure!” Periwinkle laughed.
    â€œAnd bring me back an acorn!” Gliss called. She held out her arms wide. “A big one!”
    Tinker Bell made a grand, sweeping gesture with her hand. “After you,” she said.
    â€œBye!” Periwinkle called to her friends. And she headed off with Tink, Clank, and Bobble into the Autumn Forest.
    As the friends left, no one noticed the large, snowy owl watching them from high above on a tree branch. The owl waited until the fairies had disappeared. Then with a soft hoot, it quickly took flight to warn Lord Milori of what it had witnessed.

P eriwinkle was amazed by the warm side of Pixie Hollow. Everything was so different than in the Winter Woods. So lively! Plants grew tall, and trees were covered with thick green leaves. Animals of all shapes, sizes, and colors scampered about. But the best part was seeing the fish. They really did swim in melted ice!
    Clank and Bobble kept the snowmaker cranking a steady stream of snowflakes over Periwinkle everywhere she went—even while she floated down the river on a lily pad. As they drifted down the stream, Tinker Bell glanced up at the tree branches overhead. Silvermist, Rosetta, Fawn, Iridessa, and Vidia were hiding there. She winked, giving them the signal. It was time to show her sister what the warm-weather fairies could really do.
    Silvermist went first. She dipped her hand in the stream and created a water arc above the sisters’ heads. When Periwinkle looked up, she was delighted to see fish swimming in a bubble of water right over her.
    Rosetta was up next. She flew ahead of Tinker Bell and Periwinkle and made an entire field of flowers burst into bloom. Periwinkle gasped when she saw all the colors. Then Tinker Bell motioned to Fawn. At a signal from the animal fairy, hundreds of butterflies filled the air.
    â€œButterflies!” Periwinkle exclaimed.
    â€œSurprise!” Tink’s friends cried, all flying down at once.
    â€œYour friends did all this?” Periwinkle asked.
    â€œThey wanted to surprise you,” Tinker Bell explained proudly. “Everyone, this is Periwinkle, my sister.”
    â€œThis is so exciting,” Silvermist said, clapping her hands together.
    Then Rosetta stepped forward. “Hello,” she said in a loud, slow voice, as though Periwinkle
