This one is either my second or third favorite of the series; I can't decide. We see how it all began with twins, Alex and Conner Bailey. Besides the fairytale world, I enjoyed Alex's perspective on Cinderella's tale. In that same chapter, they celebrate their twelfth birthday. Their grandma rocks!

I have just finished the series and just loved every one of them. These books are not just for younger readers....I am a retired person and really loved the twists and turns that the fairy tale characters take compared to the original stories. Loved it!
This book is AMAZING!! I fell in love with it after the first page.
My cousin told me about this and I remember the thing she told me: THIS BOOK IS ASWOME!!! But to add-on to that I like how there's a map on the first page. I also like how on the map it has Snow White's footage, Cinderella's castle, and I lot more. I think I am going to bye this book but just from my cousin's explanation I am rating it.
