Sabrina and Daphne Grimm have run away from countless foster homes since their parents disappeared eighteen months ago. When Granny Relda turns up to claim them as her grand-daughters, the girls are amazed and suspicious. How come they didn't know they had a grandmother? Who is she really? And why on earth does she lock up her house with 12 different keys?
Life really is different in the small town of Ferryport Landing. With a cast of characters ranging from Prince Charming to the Three Little Pigs, many fairy tale characters you will have met before - and hundreds you won't know, there is plenty for the Fairytale Detectives to get their teeth into.
This is great fun to read, and if you like it you could spend hours following a reading trail finding the original stories. If you would like to read more like this, you could try Ian Beck's books about Tom Trueheart, Lyn Gardner's Into the Woods, or just watch Shrek!
