This is a lesson that Bess learns the hard way. Boy, oh boy, sometimes you just have to say 'No' to people. And poor Bess just couldn't say 'No' to anyone that asked. So, when the portrait of Tink became famous, everyone wanted one too.

The thing we learn about fairies is that they jump from one fashion to another, always latching onto the hottest thing (sounds like the youth of today). This is what happens to the main character in A Masterpiece for Bess. Then the stress hits and you wish it had never happened. Then, because of the work involved, you start to feel overburdened. Have you ever been in the situation where you do something and everyone loves it? They all say that want the same thing from you and at first it is great. I felt very sorry for Bess in A Masterpiece for Bess. The other faeries finally shifted there attention to another fairy because of her dress and it led to them forgetting completely about what Bess just said. It eventually led to Bess actually calling for a meeting to show her another one of her paintings and to tell the other faeries that she will get to there paintings when she can and that it will be on her schedule not there's. She didn't know how to say no or to tell them she couldn't because of her previous work. In this book, Bess is a Painting faerie and because she painted a picture of Tink, and everyone saw it, everyone wanted it and Bess became overwhelmed with all the demands of everyone wanting a painting.

I actually read another one of these books as well and loved it.

I believe the author tries to show good morals in each one of these Disney Tinker Bell series/stories. I thought the book was very good and very well written. I am obsess with Peter Pan and Tinker Bell.
