I see the third book in the series is out now (Wonderland)... I'm guessing if the daughter gets good grades, she may pick that out as her reward.

I haven't read the books myself (haven't gotten around to it), but my 8 year old loves them.
---Side note: Normally I don't like getting paper books, but if you have a child in your life (or even child at heart) - the hardbacks are quite pretty and would make a really awesome gift for any fairytale lover.

I've been trying to get my 8 year old into reading this series. The hardcover books are beautiful and she has the first two. I didn't buy her the third (or the new story collection) because she hasn't finished reading either of those first two. I was hoping she'd like this series since she likes the toys and the videos. As her mom, I think they are nicer to look at than Monster High, but I don't tell her so.

(We are at the library and book store a lot because her older brother is a voracious reader and when one of them gets something, they *all* want something and how can I say no to a new book? )

Does anyone know if the ebook stories are illustrated? I'm trying to decided if I want to get them for her e-ink Kindle or have her dad get them for her Kindle Fire. Or I could get the epub and put it on her tablet through the app. So many choices! LOL
