The first book in Chris Colfer's #1 New York Times bestselling series The Land of Stories about two siblings who fall into a fairy-tale world!
 
Alex and Conner Bailey's world is about to change, in this fast-paced adventure that uniquely combines our modern day world with the enchanting realm of classic fairy tales.

The Land of Stories tells the tale of twins Alex and Conner. Through the mysterious powers of a cherished book of stories, they leave their world behind and find themselves in a foreign land full of wonder and magic where they come face-to-face with the fairy tale characters they grew up reading about.

But after a series of encounters with witches, wolves, goblins, and trolls alike, getting back home is going to be harder than they thought.

Loved this book. Such a page turner congratulations to Chris Colfer on his first novel. All the characters were really well thought out and it was a great twist of fairy tales. My favourite book every besides Harry Potter of course. You'd be missing out if you didn't read this book. I think this book should be made into a movie like Harry Potter it was so good.
