"A wonderful sense of humor and narrative voice ... completely fresh and unique." -Rick Riordan, #1 bestselling author
Hansel and Gretel walk out of their own story and into eight other classic Grimm (and Grimm-inspired) fairy tales. An irreverent, witty narrator leads us through encounters with witches, warlocks, dragons, and the devil himself. As the siblings roam a forest brimming with menacing foes, they learn the true story behind the famous tales, as well as how to take charge of their destinies and create their own happily ever after. Because once upon a time, fairy tales were awesome.

Adam Gidwitz spent eight years as a teacher in Brooklyn. He now writes full time, which means he spends a couple of hours a day writing and the rest of the time lying on his couch staring at the ceiling. Everything in The Grimm Ending, as in all of his novels, happened not just in true fairy tales, but it also happened to Adam.
