Product Description:
Once upon a time, in Mexico . . . in Ireland . . . in Zimbabwe . . . there lived a girl who worked all day in the rice fields . . . then spent the night by the hearth, sleeping among the cinders.
Her name is Ashpet, Sootface, Cendrillon . . . Cinderella. Her story has been passed down the centuries and across continents. Now Paul Fleischman and Julie Paschkis craft its many versions into one hymn to the rich variety and the enduring constants of our cultures.
A Junior Library Guild Selection

This book has great artwork and it's neat to read through it and see cultural differences and similarities. I think I'm more interested in it than my 3 year old, but it's a great way to explore different cultures by a classic story of Cinderella that we all know and love

I loved it! The author and illustrator were able to blend the world's stories into a coherent whole. It is beautiful and it reminds us that we are all connected, even in our tales. I almost wanted to ask you to enter it in your listing of adult books along with the many children's books that appeal to adults.

One of my graduate school instructors recommended this book to my classmates and I as future educators. I thought that it was a beautiful book, wonderfully illustrated, and contains a positive message about global mentality and unity. While the story remains similar to the popular Disney version, it is an excellent tool to show children how such a story can be represented in all parts of the world. I loved it, and definitely look forward to reading it to my students and own children some day.

This is a hodgepodge book, with each page representing a different culture but the storyline changes with each culture so there really isn't a story line that's followable. Most children would find this very confusing. An interesting idea that just doesn't work.
