Synopsis

In "Nancy First and Last," Amy Ella Blanchard intricately weaves a narrative centered on the titular character, Nancy, whose journey of self-discovery unfolds in a series of poignant vignettes. This work, characterized by Blanchard's lyrical prose and vivid imagery, explores themes of identity, resilience, and the nuances of human relationships in a rapidly changing world. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century America, the book captures the social dynamics and cultural shifts of the time, providing a rich literary context that enhances its emotional depth and invites readers to reflect on the nature of belonging and personal growth. Amy Ella Blanchard was a prominent American author known for her children's literature, and her dedication to capturing the complexities of youth informs every page of this novel. Her own experiences as a woman in the early 1900s, along with her understanding of the societal expectations placed on young women, likely influenced her empathetic portrayal of Nancy. Blanchard's ability to resonate with young readers and adults alike is grounded in her connection to her characters, transforming her stories into reflective mirrors of her audience's lives. "Nancy First and Last" is a compelling read that resonates with anyone who has grappled with identity and belonging. Blanchard's masterful storytelling invites readers into a heartfelt exploration of life's beginnings and endings, making it a must-read for those interested in the intricacies of personal growth and the universality of human experience.

    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.
