Still love Gail Carson Levine's books--especially her childrens' books. Fun and inventive, I don't mind admitting I both own and still read them.

It was a cute, little book. I did enjoy some of the humor within it. A great book for children getting into chapter books.

Come tutte le fiabe ribaltate di Gail Carson Levine, molto carino e molto interessante

An adorable, clever little retelling! I always expect enchanting things from Levine, and always get just as much or more than I expected. :D

A lovely role reversal retelling of Cinderella, with other mythological elements sprinkled in.
This also somewhat mitigated my most disliked aspects of the fairy tale such as Cinderella not retaliating against her relatives' mistreatment and the insta-love.
I would recommend this (instead of the Disney animated version) to all little girls and boys, as the moral is far better.

I really love this fairy tale! It is a sweet, simple story, and it's a great take on Cinderella.

Gail Carson Levine never fails to disappoint. My 8yo daughter and I read this together. Loved it!
