Very Little Cinderella by Teresa Heapy
Just like her pal, Red Riding Hood, Very Little Cinderella is little. Very little. But she's got a very BIG personality and one way or another she usually seems to bend others to her will. Albeit very charmingly. Join Very Little Cinderella on her very important mission: to go to the party that her Ugly Sisters are off to and to wear the outfit of her choice – however crazy it may be! With a Big Blue Scooter, an array of fabulous frocks and a Fairy Godmother for a babysitter what could go wrong? Find out in this fantastic fairytale twist.I love the concept of twisted fairy tales - children know all the traditional tales so well and the variations bring new life to them, making them appealing and contemporary. Very Little Cinderella speaks to us in a child's voice with a child's speech and young ones will really respond to this; it's cleverly and wittily done. A super contemporary take on the old favourite with plenty of humour. * Parents in Touch *
A quirky twist on the traditional tale will have children everywhere laughing themselves to sleep. -- Rebecca Hay * www.clitheroeadvertiser.co.uk *
Very Little Cinderella is a well thought out and excellently illustrated book worth having -- Philomena Manson * Children's Books Ireland *
This is a cosy story, ideal for reading at bedtime * Books for Keeps *
