The Last Faerie Tale Joshua Brafman

Jack never considered himself special. In fact, the only thing special about him was that he and his sister Eloise were found abandoned at the doorstep of the Endington Orphanage, wrapped in book pages and its cover. But on Jack's thirteenth birthday, everything changed. That day, Jack received the reconstructed book he and Eloise were found in. The book was filled with Fairy Tales, but before long, Jack started to alter the book, drawing strange creatures in it. But little did he know that these illustrations put another world in great danger: the world of the Fairy Tales, ImagiNation. The creatures Jack created ran amok, mutating and changing the mystical land and its people. Hansel becomes a cannibal. Belle turns into a werewolf. And Goldilocks is transformed into the greatest threat either world has ever known. Before he knows it, Jack is taken inside the book to fix the mistake he made, aided by a half-wolf Red Riding Hood and a Cinderella who can turn invisible. Now, with Goldilocks on the path for world domination, Jack must save both universes from total annihilation before it's too late.
