    A diabolical character is out to rewrite the fate of all fairytales in the eighth adventure in the New York Times–bestselling children’s series.   Sabrina and Daphne Grimm have studied hundreds of stories as part of their training as fairy-tale detectives. But they’re about to get caught up in the action when they follow the scheming Master into the Book of Everafter. Inside this mysterious tome, copies of the world’s fairytale characters live out their stories over and over again.   The Grimms must track down the Master while avoiding the Book’s tyrannical Editor—who is devoted to keeping the stories on track—and his army of story-gobbling revisers. In the Book of Everafter, stories can be rewritten and destinies changed, which is why Sabrina and Daphne must find the Master before he can alter his own fate—and the fate of the whole world.   Reissued with new cover art, these anniversary editions of the beloved Sisters Grimm series are the perfect opportunity for old fans to revisit the Grimm family’s adventures and for new readers to discover the magic of the series.

    "Basil the Child Dreams" shows twenty-two images of the possible dispensation. The author would not advise to treat Basil the Child and his considerations condescendingly. On the other hand, the author would suggest the readers taking Basil the Child very seriously, and, most probably, choosing the time, finding a suitable picturesque location, and considering the possible dispensation on their own. Illustrations by Shasi Martynova. Translated by Max Nemtsov.
