Join Fairytale Gardener and her sidekick puppy as they visit fairytale friends who need some green-fingered help!

Sleeping Beauty is surrounded by wild and prickly briars! And – uh-oh! – the Snow Queen can’t get anything to grow in the frost and snow and ice. But not to worry... No matter the green-fingered conundrum, Fairytale Gardener is on call, her tools at the ready.

From the creators of DOCTOR FAIRYTALE comes an immersive adventure filled with fantastic fairytale nods and twists.

Praise for DOCTOR FAIRYTALE:
