Adventures from the Land of Stories Boxed Set: The Mother Goose Diaries and Queen Red Riding Hood's Guide to Royalty

My daughter was thrilled to get this book as a gift. The illustrations are beautiful and a fun story. Beautifully bound and looks lovely on the bookshelf.

I just finished reading the land of story beyond the kingdoms and I just needed something to keep reading in the meantime the next book came out... and so I figured I'd buy these books and read them in the meantime and boy am I glad I did. These two books are hilarious and super cute but they are a super fast read and too fun to stop that I read them in a day. Now I'm here awaiting the next book again ...If you're a chris colfer fan and enjoyed his original series you'll definitely want to add these to your library .... and for the price why not!!!!!!

These two books are hilarious. They are a great addition to the The Land of Stories world. I would suggest anyone new to the TLOS world read the other books first otherwise the personalities of Mother Goose and Red will not make sense since they are both quite outrageous characters here. But that's all part of their delightfulness and quirkiness. As I said the books are full of humor but there are little pearls of wisdom here and there too. Can't wait for more from this world.

First and foremost, I love Chris Colfer. I have every single one of his books, including several signed copies.This boxed set collection is just another one to add to my collection. The imagination of Chris Colfer is easily visible in every single one of his books, and this is a great read for kids and adults of all ages. Definitely recommend :)

My daughter was OBSESSED with these books. She couldn’t put these books down! Chris Colfer has a way with words and describing details. My daughter was constantly updating us on what she had just read and was upset when she finished the series. Great books!

These are a hilarious addition to the Land of Stories world. Highly entertaining for kids and grown-ups alike, including many fun references for the parents that will go right over the kids' heads. My favorite thing about these books is that my seven-year-old son gets so excited about them that he'll read them on his own, when normally he wants me to read everything to him. These were great fun while we're awaiting the release of the next book in the main story.

I loved this new edition to The Land of Stories. I am a fan of his writings, and new books were absolutely terrific! I have only one tiny complaint-In 'Queen Red Riding Hood's Guide to Royalty, I found it very difficult to keep up with her at times. Parts of the book were very disorganized at times. Other than that, I loved her exaggerated way of writing!Mother Goose's Diary was by far my favorite one of the two. It was written with such detail. I felt like I was there with her throughout her journeys.

Really enjoyed these 2 shorted volumes. Easy weekend reads.

The praises for her book were pricelessly written.Everything was explained "really well".Mother Goose lived quite the high life. Reading her diary made me laugh.I recommend this to all the fans out there. Get yourself a copy and start reading these books.Delivery was quick and the product was in A1 condition.

Great addition to land of stories saga!

My kids, 7 and 10, love the Land of Stories series, so when we saw these books, I snatched them up. Don't make this mistake! The book about mother goose is not bad but way over younger kids' heads, discussing various historical events, making it hard for a young child to follow; it also has a few bad words and spends too much time on MG's drinking. The Red Riding Hood book is absolutely not on the same level as the series; it is written to be funny and sarcastic, comparing peasants to pets for example, but when reading it, I had to keep stopping and discussing the issues with my kids--often explaining and then reiterating that really, this is NOT how we should treat people. The Land of Stories series is full of action and valuable lessons; these books, sadly, are not. Maybe these would be good for teens, but I do not recommend them for anyone younger. If I'd known what they were like in the first place, my money would have gone elsewhere.

Chris Colfer's excellent, witty writing, as always. Highly recommend.
