Jill, the spoiled but brave sister of King Jack, has been made a Royal Guard-in-training by Sir Humpty Dumpty. After receiving a distress letter from F.G., she sets off to save the women of the neighbouring kingdom of Grimm from… a mysterious affliction. With the help of a new friend, Mary (who is very contrary), Jill unravels the mystery while rescuing such fairy tale heroines as Rapunzel, Snow White, Cinderella and Gretel. Grades 2-4.
