Arabella Grimsbro Vs. the 'Wonderful' Wizard
(2017)(The first book in the Arabella Grimsbro series)
A novel by Matt Youngmark
The wonderful wizard of UUUUUUUGH
Arabella Grimsbro is a 15-year-old girl with a mouth like a dock worker and an attitude to match. When she walks into Voyages Through Literature -- a cheesy mall store promising virtual reality tours of public domain classics -- the last thing she expects is to be whisked away to an actual magical world.
To make things worse, this Oz is very different from the one she saw in a movie when she was little. Ferocious beasts with grizzly bear bodies and tiger heads? A town of creepy porcelain dolls? The Tin Woodsman lying broken and battered at the bottom of a ditch? Arabella will need more than surliness and silver slippers to find the answers at the end of this rainbow-or even just survive the trip.
--- PLEASE NOTE ---
This book has cursing, and lot's of it. Plot-wise, it's perfectly suitable for teens, but if harsh language is not your cup of tea, Arabella Grimsbro won't be either.
Genre: Young Adult Fantasy
