My Fair Godmother
By Janette Rallison
Book Description
Finding your one true love can be a Grimm experience!
After her boyfriend dumps her for her older sister, sophomore Savannah Delano wishes she could find a true prince to take her to the prom. Enter Chrissy (Chrysanthemum) Everstar: Savannah's gum-chewing, cell phone-carrying, high heel-wearing Fair Godmother. Showing why she's only Fair-because she's not a very good fairy student-Chrissy mistakenly sends Savannah back in time to the Middle Ages, first as Cinderella, then as Snow White. Finally she sends Tristan, a boy in Savannah's class, back instead to turn him into her prom-worthy prince. When Savannah returns to the Middle Ages to save Tristan, they must team up to defeat a troll, a dragon, and the mysterious and undeniably sexy Black Knight. Laughs abound in this clever fairy tale twist from a master of romantic comedy.
"With comical chaos erupting everywhere, this magical (and romantic!) adventure will keep you grinning.!" ―Girls' Life
“A charming YA treat . . . funny with plenty of laugh out loud lines and moments” – Romantic Times.
“Giddy, ornately plotted fantasy.” –Kirkus Reviews
“Hilarious mishaps from the Middle Ages and modern times. " ―PW
“The irreverent references to familiar tales, romantic twists, and frequent comedic asides will delight fans of light fantasy, as will the likable characters, who move beyond stereotype.”—Booklist
“Rallison’s writing is zippy and light as well as frequently humorous; Teens looking for a breezy read with a fairy-tale bent will lap this up, and they may gain a little useful perspective on relationships and loyalty at the same time.”—BCCB
