fter Max's mum died, he's dedicated the last two years of his life to making sure that everything stays exactly the same. Somehow, though, Dad managed to get out of his sight long enough to fall in love with Alarming Ilona and agree to marry her. Now he's got a stepmother (probably evil) and two annoying new siblings with stupid names (who calls their children Nettle and Wild, anyway?). He knows his new life will be awful - after all, he doesn't believe in fairy tale happy endings. But when Max, Nettle and Wild are spun away into the magical Land of Happily Ever After (LHEA), they find themselves stuck in the middle of a very mixed-up fairy tale
. The creatures of LHEA need the children to help them - and if they don't, there won't be a happy ending for anyone. Can Max save his new friends - and learn to live with his new family?
A mixed-up and fresh take on the fairy tale, with a sprinkle of Jacqueline Wilson and Liz Kessler, and all the humour and charm of David Walliams.
