Fablehaven Chapter 13 Summary

An Unexpected Message

  • Kendra and Seth replenish their energy with some good ol' peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. When they go upstairs to go to sleep though, they find Goldilocks running around the room, scattering her feed.
  • That's when Seth sees what's on the floor: the feed kernels have been arranged to form letters which say "I M GRAM." As in, I'm Grandma.
  • The chicken bobs her head yes when Kendra and Seth try to confirm that she's actually their grandmother—apparently she was transformed somehow, and only the witch can change her back.
  • The next day, off they go to Muriel Taggart's shack, where they bargain with her to transform their grandma back in exchange for blowing on the last knot.
  • Grandma Sorenson is back, and Muriel is free. Grandma tells her to leave Fablehaven as a consequence of her previous wrongdoings, but Muriel laughs at her and just vanishes. Oh good…
  • Next order of business: finding Grandpa and Lena. Grandma has an idea about who might be able to help them. Apparently there's a cliff troll named Nero who might know what to do (but of course it'll be dangerous).
