In this monstrously funny and original lift-the-flaps adventure, a child finds hiding places in three famous fairy tale houses before turning on their hide-and-seek pursuers-from the creator of international sensation Inside the Villains. "Quick, hide!" Chased by monsters, each hairier and stinkier than the one before, a child finds shelter in the most famous fairytale houses-the three little pigs' brick home, Sleeping Beauty's palace and Hansel and Gretel's gingerbread mansion. Each house is full of hiding places for the reader to explore, with flaps big and small and curious places to discover on the search for the child's hiding place. And when the hero of our story finally stands up to the monsters, they may be the ones to flee, because this child has read the tales before and knows how to vanquish a villain! A villianously funny hide-and-seek game in a fairytale world.

"We love Clotilde's inventive and mischievous humour tucked under the flaps and hiding places, the cutaway fairy tale houses, and of course the triumph of a brave child." Rachel Lawson, Publisher
