Editorial Reviews

Gr 4–6—In their eighth adventure (Amulet Books, 2010) in the series by Michael Buckley, sisters Sabrina and Daphne Grimm and their sidekick, Puck, are stuck in the mystical Book of Everafter. While trying to locate their brother, the trio enter a wide variety of classical fairy tales (The Wizard of Oz, The Jungle Book, The Seven Swans, The Headless Horseman, and others) and are warned not to change the story in anyway or face grave danger. The Revisers ("the Guardian of the Stories") attack them from all directions when the three stray from the written tale. However, Sabrina and Daphne are willing to do just about anything to save their brother. L. J. Ganser has narrated all the books in the series. While at the beginning of the book Ganser's voice might seem to be an unlikely choice for the two girls, he maintains the attention of listeners and the intrigue of the tale throughout. A recommended addition for libraries that already have the other titles in the series and/or for libraries with large audio collections.—Amy Olson, formerly Lexington Pubic Library, KY
