All spell is about to break loose in this madcap fairy tale mash-up As the crown princess of Emerald, Dorthea lives a charmed life full of Hans Christian Louboutin glass slippers and Glenda Original ball gowns. But when she wishes upon a cursed star, the rules of fairy tales disappeartaking Dorthea's parents with them. To save Emerald and get her parents back, Dorthea conscripts Rexi, a cranky kitchen maid, and Prince Kato, her unwanted fianc, to help her. The three must make it to the Wizard of Is in time to stop the wickedest witch of all from escaping her magic prisonbefore it spells The End for everyone.
"A cute adventure with romance set in a world full of fairy-tale mash-ups. Readers will love Dorthea's evolution from spoiled princess to strong, confident heroine... For Oz fans, this work is a great clean-read alternative to Danielle Paige's Dorothy Must Die." - School Library Journal
