CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
At
the School for Good and Evil, failing your fairy tale is not an option.
“With her glass slippers and
devotion to good deeds, Sophie knows she’ll earn top marks at the School for
Good, while Agatha, with her shapeless black frocks and wicked black cat, seems
a natural fit for the villains in the School for Evil. The two girls soon find
their fortunes reversed—Sophie’s dumped in the School for Evil, while Agatha
finds herself in the School for Good. But what if the mistake is the first clue
to discovering who Sophie and Agatha really are ?”
The
School for Good and Evil is an epic journey into a dazzling new world,
where the only way out of a fairy tale is to live through one.
