Description

If Gilly is being perfectly honest with herself, life outside the walls of Fairy Tale Reform School is kind of boring. Of course, it's nice to have the freedom to come and go as she pleases and spend time with her beloved family, but Gilly is as bored with shoemaker trade school as she was when she went there the first time. And now, she has her younger sister Anna to worry about, whose new friends Hansel and Gretel aren't part of the best crowd...When Red's Ready for Anything shop is vandalised, it isn't long before Anna, blamed for the crime by her so called j friends, is sentenced to FTRS. Gilly quickly sends a Pegasus Post to Jax and Kayla asking them to look after her kid sister, but her posts strangely keep getting returned. Meanwhile, Rumpelstiltskin has come to collect his payment for protecting the school and he wants full control of the student body. Is it true Rumplestiltskin has cursed the teachers and made them revert to their villainous ways? Is he training the students at FTRS to do his bidding and take over the kingdom? Gilly, for one, is not willing to watch and wait. This time, she's breaking back in.

Reviews

"Mermaids, fairies, trolls, and princesses abound in this creative mashup of the Grimms' most famous characters. This whimsical tale is a surprising mixture of fable, fantasy, and true coming-of-age novel. Magical problems are enhanced by real-world lessons on prejudice, bullying, and self-image." - Kirkus
