Overview
Step into the royal court with Queen Red Riding Hood in this hilarious companion guide from #1 New York Times bestselling author Chris Colfer, creator of The Land of Stories series. Written as a witty etiquette manual by the former woodland girl turned monarch, this paperback delivers laugh-out-loud royal wisdom on everything from politics to princes. A must-have gift for existing fans of The Land of Stories and a fun standalone introduction to Colfer's beloved fairy-tale world for newcomers aged 8 to 12.

About the Book
Everyone knows Red Riding Hood escaped the Big Bad Wolf – but few know what happened after her happily ever after. In this delightfully funny addition to The Land of Stories universe, Chris Colfer imagines Red Riding Hood's unlikely rise from huntress to Queen, and lets her tell her own story in her own inimitable voice. Presented as a tongue-in-cheek royal handbook, the book sees Queen Red Riding Hood dish out no-nonsense advice on government, diplomacy, romance, health and, of course, proper royal etiquette. Packed with sharp humour, playful illustrations and plenty of nods to the wider Land of Stories saga, it's an ideal treat for readers who have devoured the original novels – The Wishing Spell, The Enchantress Returns, A Grimm Warning and Beyond the Kingdoms – and want more time with their favourite characters. Newcomers will equally enjoy the story as a light, funny slice of fractured fairy tale, while devoted fans will delight in spotting references and easter eggs from throughout the series. Compact and easy to read in a single sitting, this guide makes a brilliant gift for middle-grade readers, reluctant readers and Land of Stories completists alike, and slots neatly onto the shelf alongside the rest of Colfer's fantasy adventure collection.
