Cinderella, A PicPocket Book

 

 

Overview:

Animated magical fairy dust swirls through this beautifully retold and illustrated story of CINDERELLA, adapted by award-winning author/illustrator Ruth Sanderson from her 2002 picture book. Acclaimed as ”an exceptionally exquisite rendering” by a review in Booklist, it was also read by Sarah Jessica Parker in the original SEX IN THE CITY movie. Treat your little princess to this magical version of CINDERELLA, and she will want to experience it again and again.
