Chris Colfer Signs Book Deal

Chris Colfer has signed a book deal with Little, Brown Books for Young Readers!

The 21-year-old Glee actor will write two books for young adult readers, starting with The Land of Stories, due out in summer of 2012.

The story will focus on twins Alex and Connor Bailey and “be a fast-paced adventure series that combines the modern world with fairytales,” THR reports.

“When I was 10 years old, I promised myself that if I ever had the opportunity to write this book, I would jump at the chance,” Chris said in a statement. “This book has been at the core of my imagination for a long time and I’m excited and nervous to share it.”
