With the winning combination of Nancy Drew meets Shrek, this first book in the new Sisters Grimm series will entertain with a hilarious mix of mysteries and fairy tale twists.
In the tradition of Lemony Snicket's Series of Unfortunate Events and The Spiderwick Chronicles comes a new humorous mystery of fantastic circumstances. The Sisters Grimm (Book One): The Fairy Tale Detectives introduces us to two orphaned sisters, Sabrina and Daphne, who are sent to live with their mysterious grandmother, Relda Grimm. Grandmother Grimm lives in a strange town in New York State, known for it's extraordinary number of unexplained and unusual crimes. As soon as the sisters arrive, they begin to unravel a mystery that leads to their ancestors' magical beginnings. Sabrina and Daphne learn they are descendants of the Brothers Grimm, who were actually detectives of the magical phenomenon perpetrated by the Everafters, a parallel race of magical beings. They soon discover it is the Grimm family's legacy to keep the Everafters in line and the two sisters are the sole heirs to this challenge!
In this first book in the series, the girls are pitted against giants, who have been rampaging through town in their search for an Englishman named Jack, currently working at the Big & Tall store.
In a new breed of mystery that intermingles humor, excitement, adventure and imagination, The Sisters Grimm Book One: The Fairy Tale Detectives will inject the legends of fairytale with modern day sensibilities and suspense, creating an irresistible combination young readers will love!

This book has different combination of fairytales.Well these dont believe the lady who says she is their grandma.They have secrets they didnt know about so you have to read to find out.
Loved the book! The book was awesome hands down. It was a page turner. You should read it. You will fall in love with it. There are also 9 more books in the series. Go! Stop reading this and pick up a book already. ( I suggest The Sisters Grim)
This book is amazing the end is unpredictable some of the characters change throw out the story.

This book is definitely a page turner. I love this book. Although the chapters are super long I still love it. This book shoved a whole bunch of fairy tales in one and made it go together. If you like fairy tales I would read this book.
This book is the best, find out if granny stays or not plus you could also read more adventurous stories like this in book 2, book 3, book 4, book 5, book 6, book 7, book 8 and finally book 9! You better get to reading to see what kind of bloody story they are!
This was a very good book and if there is anybody out there that liked nerds this book was written by the same author. the way he wrote this is a little different but entreating.
I only read a bit of this book but I love it already its funny when the grandma kept on kissing the girls
I like this book so far I like the way the story is being told
read most of the books in the series and they are all so good!
