The Lovereading comment:
Cinderella and the glass slipper, retold by bestselling author Sally Gardner in a magical princess story and her transformation from servant to princess is simply told in this beautifully illustrated Early Reader. Sally Gardner’s Cinderella is delightfully good-natured while her step-mother and step-sisters are suitably disagreeable!
There are lots of Early Reader titles to choose from that are great for sharing with your youngsters and for kids just starting out on the reading journey to read alone. Check out the extracts on the site as some of the titles are slightly more advanced than others - for example the Francesca Simon animal story titles set at Potters Barn are great to get started on whereas the Sally Gardner, Georgie Adams and Vivian French titles have a bit more text to each page. Each and every one of them though has full colour illustrations on every page.
Synopsis
Cinderella (Early Reader) by Sally GardnerForced into a life of drudgery and housework by her wicked stepmother and stepsisters, Cinderella is devastated when they are invited to the prince's ball and she has to stay at home. But when her fairy godmother turns up, everything changes...
