Publisher’s Book Summary: Fairytale Land’s baddest girl is about to head to a prince’s ball. A modern, twisted retelling of Cinderella.
Once upon a time in Fairytale Land, there lived Sylvia Locke—the baddest girl around. So bad that her grandparents have shipped her off to live with her uptight Aunt Marjorie and two goody-two-shoes step-cousins. When an invitation to the prince’s ball arrives, Sylvia is determined to attend at any cost, even if it means enlisting the help of an evil fairy godmother (against Fairytale Land laws, but has that ever stopped her?). Along this chaotic quest, Sylvia stumbles into some unexpectedly imperfect friends. But will she also learn to appreciate those who truly care for her?
The second book in the Tairy Fails series of modern, twisted retelling that puts a hilarious, rebellious, new spin on the classic fairy tales. Perfect for elementary school kids and early chapter book readers.

MY REVIEW
I absolutely love this book and will be picking up the first book in this series so that I can add it to my daughters book collection. I read this book from start to finish as I could truly not put it down….I simply had to know what was happening next. It’s a fun read for readers ages 6+, and I say that as I enjoyed reading it with my daughter and truly enjoyed the storyline as an adult. Such a clever and fun way to create new stories out of traditional fairy tales that we enjoyed as kids. Sylvia Locke’s Cinderella and the Evil Fairy Godmother is a new take on your classic Cinderella story but with a fun twist. Sylvia goes to stay with her Aunt and her two goody-two-shoes step-cousins, Lacey and Macey, and devises a way to attend the princes Q Ball that the family received an invite for. Without giving too much away…. I can say I loved Pamela…. the evil fairy godmother that assists Sylvia to get to the ball and could not get enough of both her and Sylvia. The ending was perfection and I cannot wiat for the next addition to the series! This bok is a must have for every childs book collection as it gets your childs imagination going and that’s always a beautiful thing!
