HI HO, HI HO, IT'S OFF TO SCHOOL WE GO!

The Unusual Suspects by Michael Buckley

In Book Two of The Sisters Grimm series, Sabrina and Daphne must go to school or risk having to go back to the orphanage with the horrible social worker. But going to school in Ferryport, a New England town filled with disguised fairy and magical creatures that their Grimm ancestors have confined inside the town limits many years ago, is not like any other elementary school. By the end of the first day of school, Sabrina's awful teacher is dead and a student is suspected. Along with their Granny Relda, Puck, The Pied Piper (aka the principal), Prince Charming (aka the Mayor), Snow White (aka the kindergarden teacher) search out the murderer, only known by the scarlet handprint left at the scenes of the crimes.

For 4th - 6th grade readers who enjoy dark yet funny, fantasy, murder mysteries.
