My Sort of Fairy Tale Ending
Anna Staniszewski
(Author)
Description
The third book in a hilarious series where Fairy Land is not always filled with happily ever afters and one young adventurer's journey to save her family
You think a trip to Fairy Land sounds fun? Clearly you've never been turned into a mouse by an Evil Queen.
This. Is. It. My most important mission as a magical adventurer ever. And probably my last. 'Cause I'm pretty sure if I defy the council and travel to Fairy Land to rescue my parents, I'm so fired. They say it's too dangerous. That the Queen Fairy is crazy, and she's hoarding all the magic to do unspeakable things (like steal the leprechauns' gold and make all of her subjects attend mandatory parades).
But none of that matters. I finally have a chance at happily ever after with my family. And crazy fairy or no crazy fairy, I'll do whatever it takes to bring them home.
--Jenny the Adventurer

"Flippant fantasy fun."--Kirkus
"[A] breezy magical romp...the joking tone and thoughtful fairy tale play make this a fresh middle-grade read."--The Horn Book blog
"A magical world that's totally relatable. You'll find yourself wishing you were alongside Jenny fighting against unicorns (who aren't as peaceful as you think) and traveling to fantastical realms."--GirlsLife.com

Reviews
"I would definitely recommend My Sort Of Fairy Tale Ending, and the series as a whole to middle grade readers. Jenny is a great character and serves as a good role model as well as someone readers can relate to. " -- Sharon the Librarian
"If you haven't read MY VERY UNFAIRY TALE LIFE (book 1) or MY EPIC FAIRY TALE FAIL (book 2), spend the weekend catching up, so you'll be ready to join Jenny on her final adventure! " -- Love & Life & Learning
"Plenty of laughs follow Jenny the Adventurer as she concludes her trilogy of comic quests in Fairy Land... Staniszewski's ear for humor remains keen... It's all great fun for middle school fantasy fans." -- Kirkus Reviews
"Similar to the previous two books, My Sort of Fairy Tale Ending had me laughing. Jenny never lost her spunk although she's gotten more serious as compared with the previous two books." -- Thoughts and Pens
"The characters are all a little eccentric and likable and there is a very predictable happy ending. It's a great book for kids that enjoy magic and adventure but that don't like anything too dark or heavy." -- Books for Kids
