Cinderella: An Illustrated Fairy Tale Classic
"Once upon a time, there was a girl named Ella who wanted nothing more than to have magic. Not the kind of magic to cast spells. No, she wanted a different kind. Especially the day that her puppy, Bear, tried to play with the cat. 'Ella!' Her mother laughed when she saw Ella in the animal yard, covered in mud. 'What are you doing?' Ella sighed and let the wriggling puppy go. 'He made the cat angry, and the cat scratched him all up, and now he won't let me help him.' She frowned at the dog. 'I wish I had magic. Then I could fix his cuts up with just a few magic words.' My Ella,' her mother said, wiping the mud from Ella's face. 'The magic God gives us isn't like fairy magic. Rather, it's the ability to show love. Love is our magic.' Ella began to rub healing medicine on the dog's cuts. 'That doesn't make it easy.' 'It isn't easy,' her mother said. 'But you have hands to heal with and a tongue with which to speak kind truths. Practice love, and your actions and words will be more powerful than you can know.' Inspired by the original tales of Charles Perrault and the Brothers Grimm, Cinderella comes to life again in this story of strength, magic, faith, and love. As with all the Illustrated Fairy Tale Classics, this book is brought to life by Kimi Weldon's heartfelt narration, and will inspire children and adults alike time and time again as Ella discovers just how far the magic of love can take her.

Martha Pennydrop is ten, and desperate to grow up. But growing up is a tricky business. It means turning your back on imagination, fun and magic, because those were the things that led to the Terrible Day when something awful nearly happened to Martha's younger brother, Scruff, which would have been All Her Fault. But when Martha and Scruff discover a drawer full of mysterious gold dust in the bedroom of their new house - along with a window that's seemingly impossible to close - it's the start of an incredible adventure to a magical world: Neverland! The Pennydrop's new house used to belong to another family - the Darlings - who once visited this world themselves. Now Peter Pan is back, and in need of their help. Neverland is in the icy grip of a terrible curse - cast long ago by Captain Hook. And only Martha and Scruff can save it . . . A reluctant Martha and excited Scruff are swept off to Neverland and into the company of the Lost Kids.
