Synopsis

From actor, author, and comedian Ben Miller comes an illustrated middle grade fantasy adventure that’s “entertaining fairy-tale fun” (Kirkus Reviews) following a brother and sister who stumble into a magical new world—perfect for fans of Half Upon a Time and Land of Stories!

Lana loves stories, especially the ones she and her brother, Harrison, share in their make-believe games. But when Harrison decides he’s too grown-up to play with Lana anymore, she’s too lonely to find the wonder in storytelling…until something magical happens.

Lana discovers a portal to a fairy tale world hidden in the strange new supermarket in town! But these aren’t the happy-ever-after fairy tales that Lana knows—they are darker and more dangerous, and the characters need Lana’s help to defeat an evil witch. But she can’t do it alone.

Can she convince Harrison to believe in stories again and journey to the world with her before it’s too late?

When a new supermarket miraculously appears overnight in her town, Lana goes with her mother to investigate, and comes acro......more

Goodreads review by Quill&Queer on December 24, 2020

This was a perfect book for finishing off my reading year on Christmas Eve, filled with fairytale magic and new ideas. While the story was predictable, I really enjoyed the seamless links between the Grimm stories Ben Miller came up with, and how Lana and Harrison were able to save the day.......more
