The Hero's Guide to Storming the Castle by Christopher Healy

4.0

This was totally adorable absolutely fun and made me want to read the first one agains to see why I only gave it a three out of five. I think I had read it too close to half upon a time and not all fairy tale books can be that great. This book was great I loved the mixed up feeling to a new fairy tale. Instead of retelling the classics Healy takes the familiar characters and says what if? What if four princes rescued the wrong princess? What if those rescued princesses had their own agendas and one of them wants to take over the world? A great read I would recommend this to third grade on up boys and girls. More for fifth through eighth though honestly I loved it and if you like a mixed up fairy tale you'll love this.
