Review

Princess who isn't like a princess at all feels a rumble in her tummy one night and falls through a portal into fairy tale land through her refrigerator. She meets a fairly well known fairy tale character with a slightly different name. Not Mother Goose but Mother Moose. This is the first in a series and the tales that are told in fake-believe are very creative and humorous. For readers who like fractured fairy tales this will be a great series to get into.

Overall Book Score: very good
