Cinderella's transformation from poor girl to princess never fails to captivate young ones, and this stellar retelling, exquisitely illustrated by Susan Jeffers, is a must for every library. When the original version of this book was published in 1985, Publishers Weekly called it "a treasure for all ages," and The New York Times declared, "Fairy-tale aficionados will be mesmerized." For this hardcover reissue, Susan Jeffers retouched her pen-and- ink and dye illustrations, making them even richer. Her brilliant artwork is showcased in a new interior design featuring a fifth-color gold border. Embossed gold foil type on the jacket of this large-format picture book trumpets the arrival of the girl who went from rags to riches.

Seller's Description:
Illustrated by Susan Jeffers. Very Good+ in Near Fine dust jacket. 0525473459. Tight unmarked book with a few faint spray specks to lower corner of copyright page; in lightly rubbed dust jacket.; 11.1 X 8.9 X 0.5 inches; 32 pages.
Not only were the pictures in this lovely book exquisite, and reason enough to buy this book on their own, but the story is beautifully rendered and respectful to Perrault's original version, in that not only Cinderella gets to go to the ball twice, but the story also has a special ending in that she forgives her stepsisters and invites them to live in the palace with her! A wonderful, classic story set off wonderfully by Susan Jeffers' artwork. Grab it!
