Inaugurating the Whatever After series, but stand alone.
Our narrator Abby has moved with her family to a new, small town. She disapproves of their weird practices such as how they make sandwiches with bananas and peanut butter. Then, one night, her little brother wakes her up because the mirror in the basement is hissing.
She goes with him, and it drags them off, into a forest. They meet a vicious old woman and follow her for the lack of something else to do, only to find themselves stopping her from poisoning a girl living in a cottage, which has a lot of furnishing for small people.
Then Abby can tell Snow and the seven dwarfs the fairy tale, including that Snow's mother had wished for her, and that the mirror had said that Snow was fairest of them all, which they hadn't known, but it dawns on Abby that they ruined the happy ending.
It involves a book dragged through with them (and a swivel chair) called Property Law 101, stew sandwiches, how to get out a window, where to find a key, and more.
