(Book 1)
by Anna Staniszewski
Release date: November 1st, 2011
Published by: Sourcebooks Jabberwocky
Genre: Middle Grade Fantasy

SUMMARY 

You know all those stories that claim fairies cry sparkle tears and elves travel by rainbow?

They're lies. All lies.
 
I've spent my life as an official adventurer. I travel across enchanted kingdoms saving magical creatures and fighting horrible beasts that most of you think are only myths and legends. I've never had a social life. My friends have all forgotten me. And let's not even talk about trying to do my homework. So - I'm done!!! 
I'm tired and I want to go back to being a normal girl. 

But then along comes "Prince Charming" asking for help, and, well, 
what's a tired girl like me supposed to do?

Fairy tales do come true. 

Unfortunately.

Jenny the Adventurer is back, and this time she's off to the Land of Tales: 
the crazy place that all fairy tales come from.

This is one adventure Jenny can't afford to fail
