"A feminist version of 'Cinderella' to suit fans of Robert
Munsch’s The Paper-Bag Princess . . . Cinderella
joins Elizabeth in advocating for girl power." --Kirkus Reviews
"The message is empowering for young girls . . . The illustrations
in Cinderella and the Furry Slippers by Barbanègre are
lively, colourful and offer quite a bit of fun to the story,
especially with the deadpan expressions on some of the animals’
faces. Recommended." --CM Magazine
"Vibrant and hilarious illustrations . . . Children ages five to
seven will love the new look of this traditional tale." --Calgary
