  A ten-year-old girl is transported to a world ruled by a toy bunny in this hilarious adventure perfect for fans of Chris Grabenstein and Lemony Snicket. 
   
  Your name is Fidge and you’re nearly eleven. You’ve been hurled into a strange world. 
   
  You have three companions: two are unbelievably weird and the third is your awful cousin, Graham. You must solve a series of nearly impossible clues. 
   
  You need to deal with a cruel stuffed animal dictator and three thousand Wimbley Woos (yes, you read that sentence correctly). And the whole situation—the whole, entire thing—is your fault. 
   
  Wed Wabbit is an adventure about friendship, danger, and the terror of never being able to get back home again. And it’s funny. It’s seriously funny.
