Publisher's summary

The Land of Stories: The Wishing Spell: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience! *

The first audiobook in Chris Colfer's number one New York Times best-selling series The Land of Stories about two siblings who fall into a fairy-tale world!

Alex and Conner Bailey's world is about to change in this fast-paced adventure that uniquely combines our modern day world with the enchanting realm of classic fairy tales.

The Land of Stories tells the tale of twins Alex and Conner. Through the mysterious powers of a cherished book of stories, they leave their world behind and find themselves in a foreign land full of wonder and magic where they come face-to-face with fairy tale characters they grew up reading about.

But after a series of encounters with witches, wolves, goblins, and trolls alike, getting back home is going to be harder than they thought.

*Booktrack is an immersive format that pairs traditional audiobook narration to complementary music. The tempo and rhythm of the score are in perfect harmony with the action and characters throughout the audiobook. Gently playing in the background, the music never overpowers or distracts from the narration, so listeners can enjoy every minute. When you purchase this Booktrack edition, you receive the exact narration as the traditional audiobook available, with the addition of music throughout.

From the moment we heard the sample our family has been obsessively listening to this story at every free moment. I love all the back stories and the way everything wove together in the end. Good for young and young at heart!😍🥰

Expect to Revisit the Fairytales of Childhood

This book was highly recommended to me by my ten year old granddaughter. She couldn’t wait for me to read it so that we, “Could discuss it like you and Mom do other books.” I could I resist?

I actually enjoyed this book myself. I learned the stories behind the stories, the excitement of unexpected adventures, and yes, even a surprise ending! I can’t wait to discuss this with my granddaughter!
