| 9780142300480 | James Marshall's Cinderella | No one does fairy tales like James Marshall! Here, his bold and witty illustrations add life to Barbara Karlin's retelling of the well-known story of the dirty girl with the wicked stepsisters. But this isn't your average Cinderella-hearty and robust, she's a hard worker with a heart of gold. Filled with grinning rats, a wacky fairy godmother, and a whole coachful of laughs, this is the story we all know and love, seen in a refreshing new way. Will take its rightful place on the fairy-tale shelves, but won't sit there for long! (Booklist, starred review) Author Biography: Barbara Karlin was a children's book reviewer and author. She died in 1991. James Marshall created many favorite children's book characters, including Miss Nelson, the Cut-Ups, and George and Martha. He died in 1992.Children's LiteratureChildren's book reviewer Barbara Karlin and illustrator James Marshall collaborated in the late-80s to create this picture-book version of Cinderella. Author and illustrator offer a playful rendition of Cinderella's transformation from downtrodden cinder girl, who appears in one scene with her tongue lolling out of her mouth, to charming princess. The intolerable personalities of the stepsisters and stepmother are humorously rendered, while the good-natured fairy godmother and buck-toothed mice offer the heroine much-needed comfort. Young readers will appreciate James Marshall's whimsical illustrations and Barbara Karlin's brisk and witty narrative. This is a re-release of the original edition, which appeared in 1989. 2001 (orig. 1989), Dial Books for Young Readers, $15.99. Ages 4 to 8. Reviewer:Elizabeth Marshall | Puffin Books | |
