They have to confront the Sea Witch, and, much to Conner's annoyance, visit the Trolls where Trollbella, queen of the Trolls, is waiting for Conner. They travel north to the Ice Queen's lair, where Red gets a puppy – a baby wolf. The wand is made up of the most precious items of the seven most evil people in the Land of Stories. After their Grandmother, the Fairy Grandmother, is taken hostage by Ezmia the Enchantress, Froggy, Red, Conner, Alex, Goldilocks and Jack set off in a giant hot air balloon to find the pieces of the Wand of Wonderment. Froggy takes them to Queen Red Riding Hood's castle – she is not happy to see them. In the ending, Alex had the audacity to go up against the Enchantress and defeated her by using her bravery.Soon, they reunite with Froggy who tells them that the Enchantress has returned, and she has built a wall of thorns all around the Eastern Kingdom, where Sleeping Beauty rules. She showed bravery in this situation when she "kicked the troblin in the rump" (Line ). She also showed her bravery when she was captured by Trollbella (half troll, half goblin) in the Land of Stories. So, she pried information from their 'hostage holder' and showed incredible bravery when she ran away from home and "hijacked Mother Goose's giant goose" ( ), which she used to fly to her grandmother's cottage. We first saw that Alex was rather frustrated when her grandmother kept them hostage from going after their mom, who had been kidnapped. When Alex first appeared in the story, I thought, "Really, what can a child do in a crisis? " It turns out that children can really make a difference upon further reading. Initially, I saw Alex as very foolish and immature to run away from home, but my understanding grew when I realized that from Alex's perspective, family is the most important of all. I admired Alex for her bravery and intelligence which she showed when she was trying o save her mother and the Fairy-Tale World. The Enchantress, the witch who tried to kill Sleeping Beauty, attempted to take over The Land of Stories and the Otherworld (the land where the common people live). Brave Chris Colfer's novel The Land of Stories: The Enchantress Returns tells the story of two 12-year-old twins, Alex and Connor Bailey, who went on an adventure to save their mother, and perhaps the world, against the will of their grandmother.
