I read this book for a reading group and it is really good. I would recommend it for anyone who likes a mystery. The Sisters Grimm has a lot of details and is very interesting. Also if you like fairy tale characters you would like this book.
I love the book it is so cool. It's basically about These kids named Sabrina and Daphne and they have to learn how to survive in a orphanage but than they realize that there Grandma, Relda, And they have to fight giants and monsters. It's basically a whole bunch of fairy tale books combined, I love the book and I hope you do too!!!
I think that this book needs a little bit more of a mystery but overall I liked it! It's just that they are just talking about fairy tales so we know how they are going to end. I just think that they need to add more of a mystery to it so that it is more interesting.
I loved this book! The Two sisters Sabrina and Daphne have been in and out of homes since their parents went missing 1 1/2 years ago. Sabrina doesn't trust her grandmother until her grandma, Grandma Relda, was kidnapped. Her, her sister, and Puck have to rescue her. This is a great book!
In my opinion I really didn't like this book. That does not mean that other people cant like this book. I found it very repetitive and hard to follow. How every I did like the story line that came along with the book.
The book is a mystery and really interesting. It all ways made me want to read more. The two main are Sabrina and Daphne
I read this book at school because the three reading teachers split up their classes and I got put in The Sisters Grimm group. The book is filled with a lot of popular fairy tale characters and some unpopular fairy tale characters. If you do read The Sisters Grimm then you should probably start with book one or if you can easily find out what is going on then you can probably start with book two. If you like fairy-tales but you also like chapter books then I recommend The Sisters Grimm book because it's a fairy tale chapter book.
I recommend it to you to read it because first, I thought it was gonna be a boring book but when I read it was a funny/mysteries book so I think u should read it.
This is a really interesting book, it's about two girls. Sabrina is 11, Daphne is 7. They soon end up with the grandma, Sabrina is sketch about her grandma. But around the middle of the story she realized that her grandma was telling the truth all along. So Sabrina and Daphne go on a quest to find her grandma and Mr. Canis.
