All The Better to Kill You With

Eight-year-old Stella Wolfe lives in a world where extraordinary magic is commonplace.

But her life is far from a fairytale.

Stella's skin can heal itself, and she always looks like the perfect daughter. But looks can be deceiving, and not even her vision of the future guarantees her a starring role in an upcoming ballet performance.

Her absent-minded mother has high hopes for her, and competition is fierce.

Luckily, Grandma's house always has sweet gingerbread, just the right chair, and a peaceful forest with fairy rings just a few steps from the back door. But in this world, fairies use tongs, and goblins don't always come from the forest.
