The Boy Who Frightened Miss Muffet: 15 (Fairendale)

Of all the transformation possibilities he had to become a monstrous spider.Frederick one of the lost children of Fairendale is folded up inside a sack of sorts thanks to a Vanishing spell that transported him to an underground cave near Lincastle. Upon hatching he learns that he is a massive monstrous spider in a whole colony of them. The spiders have rules and rituals and Frederick wants nothing to do with them. He stands out lamentably; he is after all human under his spider skin.A friend within the colony (if a giant spider can be called a friend that is) warns Frederick that those spiders who are different who do not blend in do not last long in the group. He must conform or die. But when Frederick sneaks away from the sleeping spiders and discovers an evil plot brewing in Lincastle he must decide: conform and let evil run its course or rebel and risk his life for a noble rescue attempt?The Boy Who Frightened Miss Muffet is the fifteenth book in the Fairendale series an epic fantasy middle grade series that explores both familiar and unfamiliar fairy tales legends myths and folk tales. The world of Fairendale revolves around villains and heroes--all on a quest for what they believe is right. Throughout the series the story of King Willis and his determination to keep the throne of Fairendale (at all costs? Perhaps. Or perhaps not.) is woven into the story of his son Prince Virgil heir to the throne and friend to the village children and the story of fairy tale children fleeing for their lives--children who become what we know as fairy tale villains for one good reason or another. But remember one cannot always know at first glance who is the villain and who is the hero.
