Princess Tales Cinderellis and the Glass Hill/for Biddles Sake/the Fairy's Return

"Like the original fairy tales these stories are based upon, the characterizations may seem lacking in places and the actual plotlines may be somewhat shallow, but that doesn't erase any of the cleverness or charm. Fairy tales are universal, and reinventing them is easier attempted than succeeded. Luckily, Levine has a knack for keeping the core elements and telling an interesting story in the meantime. These stories are perfect for reading aloud, and I'm looking forward to reading the rest in the series...."Levine, Gail Carson is the author of 'Princess Tales Cinderellis and the Glass Hill/for Biddles Sake/the Fairy's Return', published 2002 under ISBN 9780060518417 and ISBN 0060518413.
