If there is one thing you can say with absolute certainty, it’s that ten-year-old Faith Smyth is no hero. Her father is a brain-surgeon, her mother is a kick-boxer, her sister is a beauty queen and her little brother is a chess champion, but all Faith is good at is forgetting her P.E. kit. Which makes it all the more remarkable that she alone has been chosen to save the mythical world from its certain doom. A mystery informer is planning to expose famous folkloric characters as charlatans who actually have very normal lifestyles, beset with petty concerns and insecurities, just like the rest of us. He has stolen a pile of correspondence from various well-known mythical characters and he intends to send it all to the newspapers in exchange for a giant chocolate cake and a dancing penguin. Faith intercepts the letters and reluctantly sets about returning them to their senders. But as she encounters assorted perils along her journey, Faith beings to discover an inner strength she never knew she had. As her adventure progresses, it becomes apparent that she is not the ordinary little girl she thought she was…

I liked this book because it was really really really Gooood!! I especially like the part when she turns into a cloud. It all started when one Tuesday, her teacher was ill so Mr Lancelot came as a supply teacher. he asks her to take a parcel to the caretakers office but as she does so she finds a letter talking about exposing all the fairy tale secrets so she takes the letters and sets off to a life changing adventure ....!!!!!

This book was okay. It was bad in some bits and was good in other bits. This book is about a girl called Faith Smyth who thinks that she is the most boring,most loneliest person in the world! But everything changes when Mr Lancelot (the supply teacher) asks her to deliver some letters to the caretakers office. This is when Faith realises that she is not ordinary but EXTRAordinary. Faith and BB bear (her first ever toy who proves to have a mind if its own and be magical) take on the adventure that is set upon them.
