I love this series by Liesl Shurtliff. It was introduced to me by my son last year when they read Rump as a class. Little did I know it was the fractured fairytale series I needed! Fractured fairytales have long been a favorite, and the way she has taken stories we know and love and given them fresh new life is refreshing! They are easy to read, fun for the whole family, and connect in unique ways. Throughout the series we meet Rump, Jack, Red, and now Grump.
Grump is the fourth and final book of the series, following Borlen the Dwarf and his journey of self discovery. Obsessed with the surface and always in a surly mood, everyone calls him Grump. And not in a nice way. Until he befriends a young princess that changes everything.
Why has “Grumpy” always been so endearing? What made him into the tender hearted grump we grew up with? Liesl Shurtliff gives the backstory we have all been waiting for, and it does not disappoint.
