Cinderella

Description

The story of Cinderella told through six beautifully illustrated 3D peep-through tableaux. A young girl with an unpleasant stepmother and two cruel stepsisters ... and a Fairy Godmother with a magic wand. The classic tale of Cinderella is theatrically retold in six exquisite three-dimensional scenes by Jane Ray. Each scene is three layers deep so you can peer through to wonderfully romantic backdrops: a lonely kitchen, a sparkling ball room, a city nightscape and a magical garden. With fold-out flaps covered in starred indigo curtains, and a wooden stage, the magic of the theatre is beautifully recreated in this wonderful fairy-tale gift.

Jane Ray won the Smarties Book Prize for her illustrations for The Story of Creation and has been nominated four times for the Kate Greenaway Medal. Her recent books for Walker include Snow White and Romeo & Juliet. She lives in London, N10.
