Sisters Grimm: Book One: The Fairy-Tale Detectives (10th anniversary reissue)

Fans of fractured fairy tales will be delighted to discover the fantasy, mystery, adventure, and humor in the beloved New York Times bestselling Sisters Grimm series by Michael Buckley, now with new cover art. As featured on NBC's The Today Show, the nine wildly popular books are favorites around the world. They were among the first to bring a distinctly girl-power spin to fairy tales, a trend embraced by hit movies and shows such as Once Upon a Time, Grimm, and Maleficent, as well as the bestselling book series The Land of Stories.

New covers will appear on:

• The Sisters Grimm: The Fairy-Tale Detectives
• The Sisters Grimm: The Unusual Suspects
• The Sisters Grimm: The Problem Child

Books four through nine will be available in revised editions soon.

In this first book in the series, orphaned sisters Sabrina and Daphne are sent to live with their recently discovered grandmother, Relda Grimm. The girls learn that they are descendants of the Brothers Grimm, whose famous tome of fairy tales is actually a history book. The girls are pitted against a giant, who has been rampaging through town. But who set the giant loose in the first place? Was it Mayor Charming (formerly Prince Charming), who has plans to reclaim his kingdom? The Three Not-So-Little Pigs, now working as police officers? Or a giant-killer named Jack, currently employed at a Big & Tall store?

With an irresistible combination of adventure and imagination, the Sisters Grimm series injects classic fairy tales with modern sensibilities and suspense, creating a fantastical blend that readers of all ages will love.
