Bookroo's summary

Alex and Conner Bailey face a dire threat as the Masked Man unleashes chaos in the Land of Stories. Stripped of her council role, Alex must rely on a quirky team, including Goldilocks and Mother Goose, to thwart his plan. The Masked Man wields a potion that transforms books into portals, recruiting villains from classic tales. Racing through Oz, Neverland, and Wonderland, the twins must outsmart him. Will they succeed, or will the Masked Man's army of villains prevail? Dive into a world where fairy tales and classic stories collide in an epic adventure.

From the publisher

Fairy tales are just the beginning. The Masked Man is on the loose in the Land of Stories, and it’s up to Alex and Conner Bailey to stop him…except Alex has been thrown off the Fairy Council, and no one will believe they’re in danger. With only the help of the ragtag group of Goldilocks, Jack, Red Riding Hood, and Mother Goose and her gander, Lester, the Bailey twins discover the Masked Man’s secret scheme: He possesses a powerful magic potion that turns every book it touches into a portal, and he is recruiting an army of literature’s greatest villains! So begins a race through the magical Land of Oz, the fantastical world of Neverland, the madness of Wonderland, and beyond. Can Alex and Conner catch up to the Masked Man, or will they be one step behind until it’s too late? Fairy tales and classic stories collide in the fourth adventure in the bestselling Land of Stories series as the twins travel beyond the kingdoms!
