Once Upon A Crime is by Michael Buckley. The fourth in the Sisters Grimm series finds the sisters and Granny Relda in New York. The girls, Granny, Mr. Canis, and Mr. Hamstead go to New York to find Puck's family. Then Puck's father, Oberon, is murdered and the Grimm's must find the real killer. Another gem from Buckley! Not only are young reader's introduced to the rest of the fairies from A Midsummer Night's Dream, but they also meet the Wizard of Oz, Sinbad the Sailor, Long John Silver, Mother Goose, and a never ending host of famous Everafters. Buckley's re-working of these characters is witty and thoroughly enjoyable. Can't wait for the next one!
