Snow White's wedding is only a day away, but Ralph, one of the seven dwarfs, has disappeared and it looks like the evil queen may have kidnapped him; Kara and Zed volunteer to rescue him, with Zed's pet sheep Lilly tagging along, but things are not quite what they seem--and it is up to the timid Lilly to save them all from the fashion-challenged queen.

"The Ice Princess's magic mirror is broken, one piece is missing, and without it the Enchanted Kingdom is locked in a terrible, unseasonable, heat wave (even the palace is melting); two children, Kara and Zed, are determined to help, but first they must figure out whether the break is the result of the sibling rivalry between the Ice Princess and her sister the Sun Princess--or did the monkey do it?"--Publisher's description.
