Annotation:
Packed with copious charming details and art in the style of Louis XIV, this picture book version of Cinderella is a feast for the eye. As the simple story unwinds, with some modern phrasing, the reader is treated to visions of opulent hair, incredible outfits, and wondrous rooms, with Cinderella as classically selfless and sweet as always. With sumptuous watercolors and pen-and-ink illustrations. A Publishers Weekly Best Children's Book of 2005.

Praise
Publishers Weekly
"McClintock's pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations emulate old-fashioned wood engravings, and the traditional story seems suffused with magic. Yet she adds contemporary touches too, in her balance of fast-moving comics sequences and closely observed moments...A splendid (and kind-spirited) retelling of a well-known tale." 10/31/2005
