The Ever Afters: Of Giants and Ice
Rory Landon, known best for her Hollywood parents, finds herself at the Ever After School. At first she assumes the school is a role-playing game gone overboard, but eventually she accepts the truth: magic is real and each student is a 'Character' destined to star in a variation of a 'Tale' . . .
The first installment in Shelby Bach's 'The Ever Afters' series, Of Giants and Ice reimagines classic fairy tale characters in a modern context, merging familiar fantasy with the everyday realities of middle-grade existence.
"Rory recalls her adventures in a first-person chronological narration that includes plenty of dialogue. The fast-paced combination of middle school realism and fairy-tale fantasy will appeal particularly to imaginative readers already familiar with traditional fairy tales." -- Kirkus
