Gr 4–7—The fun and pun-filled fantasy hijinks of Raven and Apple ensue. Raven, with the support of the Rebels, refuses to sign the Storybook and seal her fate as a villain. Her actions put Apple's happy ever after in jeopardy and pit the kingdom's subjects against one another, as students and royals take sides.
This second book is infused with the same bubbly fairy-tale language, characters, and fantasy settings of The Storybook of Legends. Here, Raven Queen must deal with the fall-out from her Legacy Day decision, and a fellow student's threatened banishment brings everyone together to protect their wrongly accused friend. The twee prose isn't for everyone, but this lively tale will satisfy series fans.
