A Fantastic Combination of Fractured Fairytales and an Adventure Story

This is a wonderful YA book that feels like it takes a page from the Pagemaster's book and sprinkles our favorite fairy tale characters from our Childhood. Alex and Connor go on adventures learning wonderful lessons as they meet new friends. Chris Colfer is an amazing storyteller.

In love with reading!

My daughter was on the verge of hating reading until we picked up this book. It's so full of adventures, realistic characters, and laughing. It's definitely a fun addictive read! I'll be reading these books to my other kids and my grandkids one day.
