Brand new from smoke and mold free home

David Delamare's delightful retelling of Cinderella, everyone's favorite

fairy tale, begins at an earlier and happier time than the traditional 

story. 

In Delamare's exquisitely illustrated version, Cinderella's own mother

is still alive when the story begins, and she has virtually all that any 

young woman might wish for. 

When Cinderella's mother dies, and her father remarries, the thread

of the traditional tale begins to unwind. Young readers are certain to be 

enchanted anew by this oldest of rags-to-riches stories, now in a 

fantastic Venetian setting, magically painted by David Delamare.
