If monsters don't exist, why is everyone in this town obsessed with yowies? 
All Jacinta wants is to go back home to Sydney, but her mum must solve a case first: a missing person with no clues, unless you count eyewitnesses who saw him get eaten by a yowie. But monsters aren't real, so what's really going on? 
When the police struggle to find new leads, Jacinta launches her own investigation and quickly learns giant hairy monsters might actually exist. She befriends Cory, a local yowie expert, and the two hunt for their monster. When Cory's desperate search for the yowie becomes dangerous, will Jacinta find her yowie or be its next victim?

New life is given to eleven old stories in this second collection of irresistible fairy tale retellings. Royalty faces magical challenges: a prince uses his powers on a rescue mission and reveals a terrible secret about his people; a king takes drastic measures to save his daughters from a troublesome curse; and a princess befriends an unusual frog. Mythical creatures can be friend or foe: three brothers face a depressed dragon with a legendary treasure; an ancient crow brings a child’s wishes to life; and one young girl discovers dragons aren’t always the enemy. Heroes come in all shapes and sizes: a miser is in danger of losing everything one cold night; a struggling mirrorsmith meets an invisible recluse; a boy must relive the fairy tale based on his ancestor’s life; a child is rejected because of his love of drawing cats; and an evil witch is sealed in a glass coffin. Be transported to new worlds and enjoy fresh twists on old favorites.

Old classics are fractured into exciting new tales in this international collection of magic, mystery, and adventure. 
Some heroes go searching for their happily ever after: a dragon cocoon hunter explores the dangerous woods for his sleeping beauty; a prince forces a perfect romance on an unsuspecting maiden; and when a girl leaves town, she must quickly decide to trust—or be wary of—a new stranger. 
Destiny is thrust upon others: a disconnected emperor struggles to retain his title; a frog prince leaves his pond in search of answers; and after Rapunzel is rescued, a new quest is awarded to her savior.
Whether it is destiny or choice, all actions have consequences: sibling rivalry pushes one little piggy to extremes and a princess must choose to follow her heart or step up as future queen. Prepare for an adventure as these eight fantastic fairy tales transport you to places beyond your imagination.
