"This is a reminder of hope and possibility, of kindness and
compassion, and--perhaps most salient--imagination and liberty.
Through the imaginations of our childhoods, can we find our true
selves liberated in adulthood?" --Chelsea Handler In her debut
children's book, Rebecca Solnit reimagines a classic fairytale with
a fresh, feminist Cinderella and new plot twists that will inspire
young readers to change the world, featuring gorgeous silhouettes
from Arthur Rackham on each page. In this modern twist on the
classic story, Cinderella, who would rather just be Ella, meets her
fairy godmother, goes to a ball, and makes friends with a prince.
But that is where the familiar story ends. Instead of waiting to be
rescued, Cinderella learns that she can save herself and those
around her by being true to herself and standing up for what she
believes. Rebecca Solnit is the author of more than twenty books
including Men Explain Things to Me, Call Them by Their True Names,
Hope in the Dark, and The Mother of All Questions. Arthur Rackham
(1867-1939) was a prominent British illustrator of many classic
children's books from The Fairy Tales of the Brothers Grimm to
Sleeping Beauty. His watercolor silhouettes were featured in the
original edition of Cinderella.
