There is a "sequel" called After ever After. It is told from Jeffrey's point of view (Steven's Little Brother). It is a really good book. If you have read "Drum's , Girls, and Dangerous pie" and liked it you would probably LOVE "After ever After"! But when the book starts it is when Jeffrey is a bit older then in Drums, Girls and Dangerous pie. :)
