In this stylish version, award-winning author Fiona French breathes new life into one of the world's best-loved fairy tales. Each illustration evokes an essential element of the classic tale from the brooding good-looks of the young prince to the comic spectacle of the hapless step-sisters, from Cinderella's bleak scullery to the brilliant glow of a thousand candles at the ball. A beautiful retelling rendered with wit and compassion.
