Mabel Jones is ready for her second unlikely adventure – another hilarious story by Will Mabbitt, illustrated by Ross Collins.

What would you do if hungry vines emerged from your wardrobe and stole your baby sister?

If you’re Mabel Jones and afraid of nothing, you’d follow!

Between Mabel and her goal is a dangerous jungle, filled with deadly monsters and poisoned jelly babies.

Can she defeat the Witch Queen and rescue her sister, or is this the last we’ll see of Mabel Jones . . .?

Fetch her, my foul creepers. Bring me the one called Mabel Jones..... Mabel's safe under her covers. The moon was beaming. The trees were swaying. Her baby sister was being pulled into the forbidden city. WAIT. Her sister was being KIDNAPPED by the WITCH QUEEN??!!! Will Mabel save her? Or is this the last we'll see of Mabel Jones?!

Mabel Jones is a good fictional character who was willing to sacrifice a lot to save her sister. This is a good read

I liked Mabel’s little sister Jarvis . Mabel was weird but very very brave and I LOVED that ! It has relatable things in it and also scary which made it more interesting . The chapters were long though . I would recommend it to someone else. :]

This is one of my favourite books. All the Mabel Jones Books are my favourite books. This was my eleventh re-readthrough. This is a summery of what happens: Mabel Jones is sleeping in bed one night, when vines break into her bedroom from her wardrobe and steal her baby sister Maggie. Mabel goes through her wardrobe to a hoomanless footure Mabel has spent a fortnight in before (In The Unlikely Adventures Of Mabel Jones, the prequel) but it's not quite as Mabel left it. So as Mabel and her friends battle through the jungle of the Noo World, it is not as easy as it seems. And Mabel to make The Ultimate Sacrifice to save her baby sister Maggie.

Baby Maggie Jones is stolen to the same Human-less future so Mabel Jones has to rescue her! And it is not that simple it is another tricky adventure for Mabel Jones and her friends!

Awesome! Gruesome! Rotsome! Especiallly the wicked witch queen... But its a kind of ridiculous for a girl on a daring adventure to go on her pajamas!

Creepy! really creepy! Especially that wicked witch who actually looks like a rickety old Grandma cow! Her adventures were super. And yes, this book is a bit obnoxious!!!

I only got a few chapters in but it really wasn't a book for me, I only get up to 10m reading time in lumps and you need a good long start to get into it

The girl called Mabel Jones is brave because if she is going to save her sister Maggie Jones she needs to be brave.

I would recommend this book for 9+ because it is very scary. But it is still a very good book.
