Whatever After

           
Whatever After is a great series written by Sarah Mlynowski. Whatever After is about a ten year old girl named Abby who focuses a lot in and out of school and loves fairytales. Her seven year old brother Jonah loves ketchup, climbing, and does not pay attention to fairytales. They have a magic mirror in their basement that only they know about.

 Maryrose is a fairy who lives inside the mirror. Any random day at midnight, she lets Abby and Jonah in the mirror after they knock three times.

 On the first knock, the mirrors starts to hiss. On the second knock, the mirror turns purple, and on the third knock, the mirrors sucks in everything, including them and they land in a fairytale. They never get to see Maryrose, but they know she's there because after their first journey, she spoke to them. The mirror brings Abby and Jonah into any fairytale and it could be any fairytale there ever was. 

If they want to go back home, they have to find a way out by trying to find an object that will bring them in. The problem is,the object can be anything! Before getting out of the fairytale, Abby and Jonah usually mess things up or try to fix them. In the end, they always find a way out. 

One time, they got sucked into Beauty and the Beast. That was one story! Everything there is named for what it is or how people look. Abby and Jonah have to make Beauty (you probably know her as Belle) fall in love with the beast. Apparently, you cannot force love like how Abby was doing it. A lot of wacky events happened and Abby got. . . .  well I’ll let you find out yourself!

You could say the series is called Whatever After because in the end, it is not happily ever after, it's whatever after! This series is great for kids who love fairy tales and adventure because that is what this series is all about! Whatever After is totally worth your time!
