Butterfly Magic II is a children’s Christmas fantasy set on the Central Coast of New South Wales on the east coast of Australia, where Christmas happens during the hot, sunny days of summer. Events are triggered when a prank is played by one of three volunteer firefighters acting as Santa’s elves. While escorting Santa to a village Christmas party, the prankster spies a scarecrow on a front lawn. He pulls the scarecrow out of the ground, placing it next to Santa on the fire truck. They then travel to the Christmas party. But at the end of the day, the “elf” forgets to return the scarecrow, which is when the trouble begins. The scarecrow’s owners demand its return and threaten retribution. They abduct Jack, the grandson of one of the elves. Jack is taken to a small island off the coast of New South Wales and is caged inside a cave. In his prison, Jack is visited by a witch, a serpent, and magical monarch butterflies. This second book of a series features Rebecca, Fredericka, and Jack, children from the first book.

Rebecca is a young girl about to celebrate her seventh birthday. One night, after seeing a shooting star, she makes a wish, hoping that magical fairies would attend her party. Quite surprisingly, one of them does; but when Rebecca’s mischievous and misbehaving friend Michael cruelly crushes a butterfly, it turns out to be the Supreme Fairy Queen Samantha. Suddenly Rebecca and Michael, along with their friends Fredericka and Zeb, are transported into a magical land where time stands still. There they have many adventures and enlist the help of some native bush animals to try and teach Michael a lesson about being so cruel to harmless creatures. Michael refuses to see the errors of his ways and is made to stand trial for inflicting such damage on the Fairy Queen, whose job it is to maintain balance in the universe. Eventually Michael meets the Wonambee, a strange and mystical snake who shows him the errors of his ways. Now that Michael has finally repented, the children must set out to somehow heal the Fairy Queen and find their way back to their own world.
