Mother Goose's book
In the first episode Brennan describes a massive, leather-bound, gilded book gleaming at Timothy's side NA E1·01:21:31. Timothy says he wished for something to bring his son back and the goose gave him the book NA E1·01:21:40. Its pages are blank NA E1·01:22:05. When Timothy writes to Jack, "Can you hear me?" fades but the name "Jack" remains NA E1·01:23:04.
In the second episode fiddle music and light pour out of a page when Timothy opens it for Old King Cole, and the charcoal of a scary page moves under his fingers to spell "Elegy" NA E2·00:16:41 NA E2·00:17:00 NA E2·01:33:08. In the fourth episode Brennan says Old King Cole, Jack Be Nimble and the word shoe are still in the book, and the Goose's golden tear turns it into a magical object that grants extra spells known NA E4·02:05:57 NA E4·02:18:08. Timothy says he kept the book even in the afterlife, and in the fifth episode the Fairy Godmother's glass shard tipped onto a page is swallowed by the book, which shows a glass slipper and begins a different story NA E5·00:20:31 NA E5·00:59:24.
In the sixth episode Timothy writes "silver spoon" while Muffet recoils, and Miss Muffet's form vanishes into the book NA E6·01:16:37 NA E6·01:32:31. In the seventh episode Scheherazade writes in it, the story of Sleeping Beauty writes itself from the spindle, and when Timothy writes a new Pinocchio story the ink fights itself and is swallowed up by the page NA E7·00:47:20 NA E7·01:00:27 NA E7·00:57:35 NA E7·00:57:44. In the eighth episode it opens to Jack Be Nimble and the ink glows NA E8·01:01:30. In the ninth episode, after Gerard puts the golden ball into it, a hole of shadow opens in the book and sucks Mother Goose inside NA E9·01:39:53. Brennan shows the Neverafter's fractured kingdoms from inside it and says it is one of these planeswalker tomes, and it can now pull up the original Three Little Pigs and cast Legend Lore once per day NA E9·01:43:35 NA E9·02:11:30 NA E9·02:12:15.
In the twelfth episode Snow White offers to caretake the book until the party can learn how to write within it NA E12·00:56:51. In the fourteenth episode Snow White says true books are almost never blank and that with one incredible things are possible, though it will reject certain things NA E14·01:19:10. In the fifteenth episode Brennan says the book is blank even of what was written before and smells like shampoo, and Pib guesses that Rapunzel stole it NA E15·01:55:14 NA E15·01:55:34 NA E15·01:55:37. In the sixteenth episode Brennan speaks of the party being without the book NA E16·00:43:02.
In the seventeenth episode Brennan's recap says it is a true book that could take great workings of magic with the ink from the Canonade if returned to Timothy NA E17·00:03:05. The Golden Goose asks for her book back, the Gander grants the wish, and Ally grabs the book as the party flees NA E17·01:25:18 NA E17·01:25:26 NA E17·01:26:33. In the eighteenth episode the Baba Yaga asks what Timothy would give to write in it truly, and he describes the plan to shred the book so that everyone receives a piece and a drop of the true ink, offering her a full page first, which she snatches out of the book NA E18·01:36:53 NA E18·01:37:03 NA E18·01:37:37. When Ally writes the Stepmother's name on a page, Brennan says the book thunders with power NA E18·02:01:55 NA E18·02:02:02.
In the nineteenth episode Brennan says Ally still has Nondetection on the book, and Snow White tells Cinderella that he has the book and she should get it from him NA E19·00:18:16 NA E19·00:18:39. In the finale Brennan says Ally's book is open to a blank page NA E20·01:41:56. Ally narrates a small piece of the true book and a drop of ink finding each person, who ingest it, and Brennan says the spell works NA E20·02:02:09 NA E20·02:02:32. Brennan describes the Wicked Fairy and the Fairy Godmother flying out through the pages of the book, and the Golden Goose asks the Gander, her brother, what new story he would write in his own book NA E20·02:15:18 NA E20·02:16:18 NA E20·02:16:29.
