This well written book is one of the most charming short story collections I have ever read. I wasn't sure what to expect from the title, but I was not disappointed. Each short story is a "twist" on the original Cinderella story we all know and love from childhood.The book is filled with tales of wicked stepmothers, glass slippers, elegant balls, and fairy godmothers. The book includes fables, some poetry, and a few stories with "morals" at the end. One of my favorite stories was "Cat Cinderella". I especially liked the part where the governess tells Cinderella how to do way with her wicked stepmother by "accidentally" closing a wooden chest on the woman's neck.I highly recommend this book to readers, young and old, who enjoyed the original Cinderella story.
