Such a fun book, full of magic, mystery, and fairy tales!

Sabrina and Daphne, the Sisters Grimm, continue their adventure to find and save their parents. But they come across some unexpected events and Sabrina decides to be foolhardy, so her Grandmother grounds her..... Unsuccessfully.

My copy of this book has some pretty scary pictures of everybody (bad proportioning), but some normal ones too. I'm a little confused at the artist's art style and consistency.

4.25 stars.
This is like A Series of Unfortunate Events meets Once Upon a Time. Humans and 'Everafters' aka fairytale characters live side by side but the characters don't age while humans do. The Sisters are descendants of the Grimm Brothers. The whole premise of Grimm Brothers stories being documentation rather than fairytales made up is fantastic.

I liked this book, although it was a bit slower than the previous books...
