Sarah Beth Durst weaves many fairy tale retellings together in this book. "The Wild", which controls the fairy tale world, lives under 12-year-old Julie's bed. Her mother, Rapunzel, led a fairy tale revolt in which she and other fairy tale characters escaped the Wild and are now trying to lead normal lives. Rapunzel and Julie must make sure the Wild does not escape. But, someone has asked for a wish at the Wishing Well Motel. That wish set the Wild free, and it begins to turn the present world back into a fairy tale world. In order to save everyone, Julie must try to avoid getting pulled into any fairy tale story. Can she do it or will the Wild take over the world?
