Product Description

Product Description

Taking inspiration from numerous fairytales and weaving them into a wholly original story, "Into the Woods" is a whirlwind of a novel, full of imaginative happenings, dastardly deeds and thrilling adventure. Our guides are three sisters: Storm, Aurora and Anything Eden. Accidentally orphaned and left to fend for themselves in a decaying mansion on the edge of the wilds, they come to the very much unwanted attention of the sinister Dr DeWilde: a scar-faced gentleman with a pied waistcoat and an unhealthy interest in rats. He's after a tiny little musical pipe that Storm has inherited, and he'll stop at nothing to get it. Fleeing into the woods, our courageous and eccentric sisters evade kidnap (almost), resist the temptation of sweet-filled orphanages (nearly!), and begin a treacherous journey across raging rivers, over mountains of ice, through deathly silent ghost towns and beyond the lairs of child-eating ogresses. With ravenously hungry wolves snapping at their heels every step of the way! Featuring wonderful illustrations by award-winning illustrator Mini Grey, "Into the Woods" is a classic tale with a very modern twist and will delight readers of every generation.


From the Back Cover

Aurora Eden's List of VERY Important Things to to Today

1. Tell Storm off for making fireworks - AGAIN!
2. Bake chocolate-coated madeleines.
3. Dust behind the kitchen cabinets - IMPORTANT!
4. Ask Storm if she knows anything about that funny-looking musical pipe I found behind the pickle jars.
5. See if Desdemona has laid any eggs.
6. Set Storm ESPECIALLY hard maths test as punishment for crying WOLF.
7. Make sure no one finds out we are living without a Grown-up.
8. Convince Storm that Witches Aren't Real.
9. Rearrange linen cupboard.
10. DON'T GO INTO THE WOODS!

5.0 out of 5 stars Magical, Thrilling and - Sometimes - a Little Bit Spooky, 28 Jul 2006
By Ben Sharpe (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
There's a little bit of everything in this novel. OK ... more than a little. A lot. It's a big book, but so pacy and crammed full of story that no reader will feel intimidated. From first page to last it's just a wonderful journey. Great heroes, a villain to hiss at (though not loudly enough that he might hear), constant nail-biting adventure, and lots and lots of really delicious food (most of which is *dangerously* tempting!). Any child - anyone - who loves fairytales will be mesmerised by this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars no ordinary fairytale, 31 Aug 2006
Even though this is ment for 8 to 12 year olds im 16 and i love it. It has everything from ogres and gingerbread houses to an evil pied piper after a flute with only three girls able to stop him. This book is full of excitment, just as good if not better than Harry Potter.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fascinating read.
This is a book full of adventure and is totally fascinating. It was amazing how much the sisters loved each other but they didn't know how to show it. Read more
